The population is increasing. Cities spread for hundreds of kilometers. And what is the condition of the coastal cities? Experts say that the floating city is a good idea. Recently, they have prepared to build such a floating city in Busan, South Korea. These are the features.
A floating city
It is known how devastating a tsunami can be. We have seen sea level rise and erosion of roads along the coast. At the same time, the spread of concrete jungles on earth is creating an environmental threat. Since 1880, the sea level has risen by nine inches. It is likely to increase by another 12 inches by 2050, according to a recently released report by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NAA). Rising sea level is likely to threaten power supply and transportation facilities in coastal areas. Experts say that the only alternative way to deal with this menace is to build floating cities.
Wonder on the water
Oceania, a company that develops floating cities, and the authorities of Busan, South Korea, are building a floating city on this water. Oceanics operates under the auspices of the United Nations. It can be said that nuclear engineering is a marvel in this city, which is going to be built on a total area of 15.5 acres. It consists of interconnected platforms built on water.
There is also connectivity with the earth. Each floating area is designed to serve specific needs. Total float anchored to see the city like a ship.
