Venice is grappling with the increasing challenge of rising sea levels, prompting a reassessment of its flood management strategies. The Mose flood barrier system, while effective in protecting the city from storm surges, is being utilized more frequently due to climate change, impacting the delicate lagoon ecosystem. The Lagoon Authority is now considering a 'Plan B' to supplement the existing infrastructure, acknowledging that the Mose may not be sufficient to handle future sea-level rise. This situation underscores the need to balance flood protection with the preservation of Venice's unique natural environment.
