The flooding risk is very serious here! In 2015, one of the strongest flood took place on the coast of Emilia Romagna. The sea level of 1.21 m was the highest level ever recorded by the tidal station. In Ravenna there were 400 evacuated people, 40 km of inaccessible roads, about 60 fallen trees...

Due to alterations in the natural habitats, landscapes will tend to mutate and migrate. The territory will become increasingly hostile for the humans, forcing them to migrate in the hope of finding safer places.
