[00:00:00]Is Venice really sinking?

[00:00:02]Venice is a special city, famous for its canals, but because the city is very low, some places can sometimes flood.

[00:00:08]Let's look at three simple things why this happens.

[00:00:10]One, sea level is rising. As the earth gets warmer, seas slowly rise. Venice is very close to the sea, so even a small rise can affect the city.

[00:00:19]Two, the city is slowly sinking. The ground under Venice is slowly going down. It is not happening suddenly, but little by little over time.

[00:00:27]Three, storms and tides push water into the city.

[00:00:30]>> [music] >> Strong winds and high tides can push sea water toward Venice. That is why some streets and squares can end up under water.

[00:00:36]So, Venice floods for more than one reason. The sea rises, the city slowly sinks, and storms push water in.

[00:00:41]>> [music] >> Today, special sea barriers help protect the city, but if sea level keeps rising, Venice may need stronger protection in the future.

[00:00:48]Do you think Venice can be protected?
