Italy’s diversity

Dos and Don’ts Of Visiting Venice, Italy
With the diverse climate in Italy, it is one of the most biodiverse countries in the Eu today. However, with rapidly changing weather, flooding, and recent heat waves; Italy has experienced the worst impacts of Climate change in the region. Understandably, tourism is huge and has possibly negatively impacted levels of water pollution. is not good if we look at the province of Venice. Wastewater that used to be switched out with water from the sea can’t keep up with the waste created by modern-day Venice. Personal hygiene products and synthetic chemicals end up in the water supply and have no way of leaving. Further pushing away species that would have resided there.

Besides Biodiversity let’s look at the cultural diversity within Italy. Italy was given beautiful landscapes, arts, and cuisine from the Roman Empire that have influenced life as it is today. It is a beautiful mix of ancient architecture with buildings from the renaissance and cathedrals in the gothic style. Each province/municipality has different cuisines and rich histories. Bologna is known for stuffed pasta like tortellini, Venice is known for seafood, and Rome is known for meat/meat dishes. The food diversity within this country is so big. Partially because before the unification of Italy, there were constant wars between regions because they were divided. There are of course still local fiascos but nothing like they once were. Italy is both culturally diverse and biodiverse. This peninsula has so much to offer to all visitors that come.
