Flooding in Slovenia’s Capital

 


In Slovenia’s capital, massive and tremendous flooding has shaken it’s people. Leading to hundreds of interventions through way of emergency crews. Overnight rainfall is the culprit behind this flash flooding and the destruction caused in Ljubljana. This heavy, sudden downpour happens reportedly every “once in two centuries event.”
The major issue that stems from this flash flooding is with the hospitals that where damaged. Other damaged pieces of property include houses, a theatre show(shown above), and miscellaneous buildings here and there. The majority of critical infrastructures was flooded. In the hospitals people report seeing the water racing down the stairs as if it was a waterfall.
Over 2,700 calls, 400 interventions, and 500+ Buildings which where flooded came from this storm. This rain also gave way to the protest going on causing them to disperse and flee. They where protesting over virus contamination. Even though protestors had already had water cannons and tear gas used against them. They stood no chance against this rain. They say that they’re no injuries to report.

              As well as a lot of other people, I enjoy a nice relaxing day on the water. Some people decide to take a weeks worth of days on the water. Including a boat, food, and entertainment. Cruise ships are some what of a luxury with the fancy dinners every night. Swimming pools and massive halls for shows and people to perform. Not to forget some even have places to throw cards and gamble. In recent study’s, cruise ships are found to be a major contributor to the growth of on water environmental pollution and degradation.

Ocean Fish Stock by Aaron Hoffman

  The worlds ocean fish stock is on the verge of collapsing. T he  International Union for Conservation of Nature , Jared Ferrie reports that the oceans have absorbed more than 93 percent of the heat generated by human activity since the 1970s, primarily through its large surface area, volume, and low albedo. Last year, the ocean was its warmest in 136 years of records. The increase in temperature has led to new toxic organisms and algae bloom that poison fish. Many specials are leaving their natural habitats in search of cooler areas. Since fish are leaving their natural habitat it causes a lot of problems for the fish in the habitat they move to. Food starts to dwindle down quicker that it should and the people that eat fish can search for fish in that area but cast find any if the fish leave. People are also overfishing and causing species to decline.   https://youtu.be/AHI-B-4c2NU  https://www.newsecuritybeat.org/2017/02/ocean-fish-stocks-on-verge-collapse-irin-report/
