La Nuova Venezia 14.1.20: “Smog in Venice: Something must be done to limit water traffic”

An article written by Jack Wright and Jane da Mosto has been published in local Venetian newspaper La Nuova Venezia. The piece underlines the link between local air pollution and global climate change, as well as signalling the irony of differential traffic controls to address the air quality crisis.

Although Mestre and Venice are politically forced into a single administration, road traffic has been limited on the mainland whereas nothing has been done in the lagoon and historic city to limit water traffic.
