I find it mind boggling that we’re doing these ocean cities. In Denmark we’re doing it as well, though mostly by using old unused habourspace and not by reclaiming land. The result is really expensive real estate in locations that will be hit by climate change the hardest.
We haven’t managed to do much about climate change in the past 35 years and now we’re at a point where we need to change our society so radically in 3-5 years that it just won’t happen.
Since it won’t happen, that million dollar apartment with ocean view is sort of a scam. Because that’s really not where you want to live in 20 years. Right now the best place to buy property is in one of the few geographical locations that won’t get absolutely fucked by climate change, and reclaiming the ocean is the opposite of that.
