Sinking cities that could soon be underwater
Venice is sinking at a rate of 0.08 inches every year.
Italy began building a flood barrier consisting of 78 gates across its three inlets in 2003. It’s known as Mose. The barrier was supposed to be completed in 2011, but will likely not be ready until 2022.
When a series of storms hit Venice in 2018, the $6.5 billion project was still incomplete. The flooding was the worst the city had seen in a decade.
