100 Tons of Dead Fish Wash Up in Volos

News summary

Over 100 tons of dead fish have washed up on the shores of the Greek port city of Volos, causing significant disruptions to local businesses and tourism. Authorities link the mass die-off to extreme weather fluctuations, including severe flooding followed by drought conditions, exacerbated by climate change. The dead fish, originating from Lake Karla, have created a stench that has driven away residents and visitors, reducing commercial activity by 80% in the seafront area. Local officials have criticized the slow response from regional authorities, while the Chamber of Commerce is considering legal action for the economic damages incurred. Efforts are currently underway to clean up the dead fish, involving multiple contractors, fishing trawlers, and earthmovers. Scientists warn that such extreme weather events are becoming more frequent due to the ongoing climate crisis.
