We, Venetians, have seen some really bad behaviour this summer: people sunbathing on the banks of the canals as if they were on the Venice Beach in California and not Venice the City of Art in Europe; people taking a dip in bathing suits in the canals of the city (may I remind here that there is NO sewage system in Venice, so they swam in some very-very dirty waters). There were foreign families sitting in the middle of Saint Mark’s Square and our little campi (Venice little squares) having full picnics with little camping stoves! There were disgusting human beings who decided that Venice is an open air toilet and you can practically relieve yourself in any corner of the city, even in rubbish bins in front of everyone (OK, we do not have a sewer system, but we do have toilets!!!). After all this we, Venetians, have decided to take things in our own hands and try to stop tourists treating our amazing city like trash.
