Some photos from our Sunday walk in the neighbourhood with @vivia. We saw a couple of birds again.
A little egret wading through the shallow water (click on the photos for a full view, they're in portrait orientation), a seagull that looks like it had a hard night, and a hooded crow on a rusty pole looking curiously over its shoulder.

#Greece: New floods last night during a heavy rainfall…the soil was already moist from the previous Daniel storm and couldn’t absorb the water, rivers where already full with debris so where quickly overflowen.

I do not think that mud and silt would stop agricultural production. Silt is usually good for agriculture, think Nile Delta. I think it is the garbage and oil spills which would harm the farming.

Kolumbo is the submarine volcano near Santorini, Greece. Its eruption in the 17th century BC, and the tsunami that followed, destroyed the Minoan civilization in Crete and the eastern Mediteranean.
Now its chamber appears to pose a serious hazard as it could produce a highly explosive, tsunamigenic eruption in the near future.

Ten years since Pavlos Fyssas’ assassination: A turning point in Greek antifascist struggle

In #Greece the storm #Daniel caused massive havoc with 750l Rain/Sq. meter in 18h.
Yet only 15people died. In #Libya the same #storm likely #killed over 10.000 people with only 414l. Of course #geographical, #political and #social circumstances are in part responsible, but a good #infrastructure to #warn people beforehand is likely the largest contributor. This is underlined by the heavy rain in #Germany in 2021 that killed 188 people with 90l/sqm.
To be prepared for the massive #natural #disasters that are heading out way due to the climate #crisis tools like #CellBroadcast and #Sirens are absolutely necessary to save lives.
Additionally we should strive to reduce #Co2 and save the #climate at any cost. It will still be cheaper than the alternative if we don't.

"In a region hit by a ferocious Mediterranean cyclone, or “#medicane”, named Ianos, exactly three years ago on Monday, fury is widespread that almost no flood prevention measures had been taken even if most accept that this month’s storms, energised by a summer of unprecedented heat, had not occurred in several hundred years."

I wrote about our plans for a #summer #vacation to #Greece without airtravel a while ago. I'd said I wanted to put my money and effort where my mouth is.
Now I wanted to add a follow-up, but the original post is already gone. My fault for setting auto-deletion to 3 months.
Two adults and two children travelled from #Vienna 🇦🇹 to #Corfu 🇬🇷 and back via #Italy 🇮🇹 , with some sightseeing in #Ancona, Corfu Town, #Brindisi, and #Rome without using any cars or airplanes. I had bought additional travel insurance for missed connections, but we didn't need that.
Itinerary: Tram, #Nightjet sleeper, bus, #ferry, bus, bus, (hotel stay with occasional outings by bus), bus, bus, ferry, shuttle bus, bus, (hotel), #Frecciargento train, (hotel, metro and bus for #sightseeing), #Frecciarossa train, Nightjet sleeper, metro. (Busses means regular public transit busses on numbered lines that the locals also take.)
Every single vehicle everywhere had working air condition. They were clean and on time, and all the longer trips had tasty food. There's power outlets everywhere. The Frecciarossa (red arrow) between Rome and #Bologna only got to 250 km/h, not the 300 we were hoping to see, but that was the only slightest disappointment.
The ferries are not at all climate-friendly. I have not found a number for how much #CO² for a crossing, but they are similar to cruise ships. The trips are far shorter than cruises of course, but we see and smell the black smoke from the stacks. It's wrong to feel smug about taking a ferry instead of an airplane. All the busses had #combustion engines. All the trains/metros/trams were #electric, so that depends on the grid. The Austrian ÖBB prides itself on using only "green" #electricity.
We enjoyed the trip very much. I am unsure about any future travel. I would totally do this again in terms of comfort and experiences. But my goals for how much I hope to not pollute and damage the world for my pleasure have changed. I have no answers right now.
Yesterday's photo was very recent, but today's is very old.
This one was taken in 1973, on Crete, with my very first SLR camera. It was before the days of digital cameras, or mobile phones, or even home computers, and I had only just taken my first plane flight.
Being able to post photos I took 50 years ago sometimes makes me feel quite old, but at other times the past feels like, well, just yesterday...

In all the talk of Burning Man and the Moroccan earthquake, not seeing a lot of reports on the super flooding in #Greece that occurred. They got 31.5 inches of rain in a single 24-hour period of time, supposedly three years’ worth of rain in two days, flooding flatlands and potentially spinning up permanent lakes in populated and agricultural areas.
Inside the horror of Europe's biggest wildfire.
For weeks, the people of Lefkimi have felt helpless as almost 1,000 sq km of the forest that provided their homes and livelihoods burned.
“Send us planes now, otherwise it’ll come here,” one man pleads into the early evening sky.
Then, one after another, planes appear through the smoke over the hilltop, dousing the blaze.

Stangaciu said she felt a great deal of anxiety about the climate. “The heatwaves are getting longer each year and now this.

The Thessalian plain is Greece’s main agricultural breadbasket and accounts for more than 22 per cent of the country’s agricultural production. Much of the region’s agricultural resources have now been destroyed…
“I don’t think we have realised the magnitude of this disaster yet,” said Professor Efthymios Lekkas,… it would take at least five years for the plain to be fertile again.

Satellite data from the radar of the European satellite Sentinel-1 that passed over #Greece on Thursday, September 7, show that a large part of the plain of #Thessaly is flooded. In eastern Thessaly, the area of Lake Karla is almost as large as it was before it was drained in 1962 for agriculture. 👇
A total of about 720,000 acres of flooded areas are estimated. 🌊

The Omega Block and the Deadly Floods in #Greece. 🇬🇷 🌊
On Monday, September 4th, a low-pressure system emerged over the eastern #Mediterranean triggering a storm named Daniel over the Ionian Sea. This storm unleashed torrential rain, delivering an astonishing amount of rainfall equivalent to a year's worth in just 18 hours in Central Greece. The consequences were devastating.

Police in #Greece ordered vehicles off the streets of the central town of Volos and the nearby mountain region of Pilion on Tuesday as a severe storm hit the area, turning streets into flooded torrents.
The fire department said one man was killed in Volos when a wall buckled and fell on him, while another man was reported missing, believed to have been swept away by floodwaters.
