| Venice in Peril
Venice is still in peril.
The Venice in Peril Fund, the
British charity for the
protection of Venice, was
created after the great flood
of 1966 when the waters rose
to nearly two metres above
mean sea level. Since then
the Fund has disbursed
millions of pounds for the
restoration of Venetian
monuments, buildings and
works of art. It is clear,
however, that the underlying
threat to the city’s physical
survival remains the sea.
Flooding is becoming a
regular and destructive
feature of life in Venice. In
the first decade of the 20th
century, St Mark's Square
flooded less than ten times a
year. By the 1980s, flooding
was occurring 40 times a year
and between September 2000
and March 2001 alone, over 40
floodings were recorded.

| Sal.Ve, Let's Save Venice
Thanks to its position on the
sea Venice, other than being
a jewel of architecture and
art, is also a city unique in
the world because of its its
symbiosis with the lagoon.
But, for the same reason,
Venice is delicate, and
undergoes the risk of being
slowly destroyed by the sea
itself. Sal.ve is the
abbreviation for “Salviamo
Venezia” (Let's Save Venice)
and the association it
represents has as its goal
the safeguarding and
protection of Venice and its
lagoon from high water and
sea storms, as well as its
environmental defence.
