RAEL’S COMMENT:
What will say the climate alarmists who claimed that global warming was responsible for Venice flooding? The truth is that natural cycles have always happened. All these “global warming” fanatics live in areas where life would be impossible if natural global warmings didn’t occur after the glaciations of the past. Human beings must learn humility when confronted with the natural order and natural cycles instead of creating guilt among new generations for using science and technology. Spreading false belief that changes in the weather are created by human activities can only create anxiety among young generations and slow down scientific progress.
Low tides have left canals in Venice almost dry, just two months after severe flooding left much of the Italian city under water.
Boats have been seen almost beached as water levels dip drastically.
The canals look more like mud trenches and getting around has become a problem for many in the city.
In November, Venice experienced its highest water levels in more than 50 years in what some said was a direct result of climate change.
Climate change behind highest tide in 50 years, says mayor.
More than two thirds of the city was underwater then, with the mayor estimating damage at over a billion euros ($1.1bn; £850m).
Landmarks like St Mark’s Square were flooded, while shops and businesses had to close.
The latest low tide – while exceptional – is not quite as unprecedented. The tides here mean water levels can vary by around half a metre, or sometimes even more.
