Actually the island is called: „Isola Artificiale del Baccan di Sant'Erasmo“ translates to „Artificial Island of the Baccan of Sant'Erasmo“

Why not just raise Venice ... just start lifing up the city gradually. Like replacing the foundation poles on which venice is built exept they get longer so venice stays above water even when the sea level rises. On some occasions you just add a few more longer solid poles over the decades, and then continue lifting.

climate change does not rais see lvl.

imagine a cup with ice cubes in it. if u let all the ice cubes melt the water lvl will not go up at all, cuz the ice displaces the same amount of water anyway.

see lvl will only rise if the land locked ice in the Antarctic starts to melt. which is nowhere near to happening.

Just right it off. Venice is a silly tourist trap, like a roadside Gator Farm in the US south.

It was built there to make it unconquerable, which it was. But that hasn't mattered in over 200 years.

Move all the people and valuables to the mainland and just abandon it.

The climate is changing, whether you believe it’s man made or not. Accept it and let’s solve it together.

I'm from the Republic of RealLifeLoristan and I don't understand dollar bills or tennis courts. Could you please convert your measurements to Toyota Corollas in future?

Lol, I love how editor missed that "spill a spritz" means the drink (like an aperol spritz), not a spritz like from a spray bottle

Dropping some Island name suggestions:

FlashBlock Sanctuary
Flood Lock Rock

I don’t think MOSElini Isle would go down too well...

I know that overrun sounds bad, but compared to HS2 it's minor.

Climate change is a natural cycle driven by the sun and earth... people affect it very little... Venice will have to adapt.
