The environment of the Venetian lagoon
The Venetian Lagoon is the largest wetland in Italy, covering 55,000
hectares, which with the lagoons of Grado and Marano, is the last reminder of
the great strip of lagoon and delta that once stretched from the mouths of the
Timavo to Ravenna.
The islands that make the lagoon a sustainable proposition
by :venews
Venice as a city is only one part of the Venice of the lagoon where islands create a sort of natural park without equal in the world. The islands have been for a long time left to decay and this in turn damages Venice itself. It seems incredible now to think how these islands were once teeming with life and that are now abandoned or in some noteworthy cases, restructured and given new life. These cases give hope that not every angle of the lagoon need be lost forever.
