Climate change is threatening ancient Greek monuments, including the Acropolis, due to air pollution, acid rain, and extreme weather events. Scientists and officials, such as Maria Vlazaki from the Greek Culture Ministry and Christos Zerefos from the Academy of Athens, highlight the increasing erosion and structural problems. Efforts to preserve these sites have intensified, but more resources and better protection systems are needed to safeguard Greece's cultural heritage.

Archaeologists in Greece have discovered 58 shipwrecks in the Fournoi archipelago, marking the largest concentration of ancient wrecks in the Aegean and possibly the Mediterranean. These shipwrecks, dating from ancient Greece to the 20th century, reveal trade routes connecting the Mediterranean, Black Sea, and beyond. The RPM Nautical Foundation and Greece's Ephorate of Underwater Antiquities lead the project, uncovering over 300 antiquities, mainly amphorae, which provide insights into ancient trade goods like wine, oil, and fish sauces. The shipwrecks are attributed to sudden storms and rocky shores, with some speculation about piracy. The team aims to establish a center for underwater archaeology and a local museum in Fournoi.

Diver Vasilis Mentogiannis is leading efforts to protect a unique seahorse colony in a remote gulf in north-eastern Greece, which has been threatened by pollution and overfishing. After restoring their habitat in 2015 with synthetic plants and ropes, he now seeks broader protection measures. Marine experts, including Costas Dounas from the Hellenic Center for Marine Research, are fascinated by the stable population of seahorses in the area, which is unusual given the barren seabed. The artificial habitat has helped increase the seahorse population, although exact numbers remain unclear.

Greece has initiated a pilot program to administer COVID-19 vaccines outside churches, starting on the island of Crete.
