Environmental historian & associate prof. at Sciences Po Paris. First book on #disasters (https://shorturl.at/cXZBh) now writing on #rivers & growth in the Po Valley of Italy. All things #water & #climate, #envhist news, & adventures in daily life.
Finally managed to see the Cavour Canal, built in 1863-66, an important piece of my Po book. Cycled all the way from Turin 🚲🚲🚲and reached the point where it crosses the Dora Baltea River.
Here what the canal looks and sounds like as it begins its path through the plain
