Take Venice

Venice is an exception (probably shared with New Orleans and Bangla Desh).
The really bad thing is that the ground is sinking due to compaction of the
mud it's built on. That is more important then the rising sea level.
Also, in the case of Venice and Bangla Desh, they are at the apex of long
fairly narrow bodies of water, the Adriatic sea and Bay of Bengal, and if
tides and wind maliciously cooperate, there is an enormous surge of water
flowing NW into those shallow lagoons, where it has nowhere to go but up.

Aren't Venice, IT and Florida both sinking from depleting the aquifers
which are directly under them?


Nooooooo it is because of Global Warming!!!! Or is it Butch's fault?
