Venice in 2030
Did you know that Venice could be underwater and uninhabitable by 2030?
I’m listening to the ocean waves crash outside my hotel room in Laguna Beach. It’s cool here at night, even in mid-June. The sound of the oceans waves is amazing - deafening if you’re distracted by work and thoughts of other things besides works, sleep encouraging if you’re putting your thoughts behind you.
This place has become my haven from work, and yet I’m bringing my work to Laguna. I just completed my first Search N Spa event, where I teach search marketing to retailers for four straight days. It’s intense but offers up time for retail business owners and high level execs to spend time with their family, and the opportunity to walk the town. Laguna Beach is known for its art galleries. It’s absolutely gorgeous. Areas that are surrounded by water are so fragile in today’s world of global warming.
I’m watching Discovery Channel and they’re talking about Venice, Italy, and its water bound city. Water levels are rising 1/40 of an inch per year. A woman interviewed said they are getting flooded in Venice with the tides at night. It’s quiet, scary, and the water simply, quietly floods the house.
What are you doing? Are you making changes in your everyday life? Are you walking more? Recycling? Consuming Less?
