Floating cities once seemed like sci-fi. Now the UN is getting on board

• arclein

To respond to the coming crisis, Chen (who served as minister of tourism for a year) wants to build groups of floating islands that would be able to act as new human settlements not only for French Polynesia, but for the countless other islands that will suffer a similar fate?"as well as the many global cities that are located on the coast. An estimated 2.4 billion people?"40% of the world's population?"live in a coastal region and will likely be impacted by rising sea levels as a result of climate change. In late 2018, Chen started a company called Oceanix that is aimed at building the off-shore urban infrastructure that will help people weather the problems of rising seas?"as well as extreme floods and storms.

Great idea! On the other hand, what better way to take over the world? This way the U.N. can gain foothold in areas that don't really have any other government to oppose their growth. Why? Because it is being done by people who are agreeing with the UN. --- Just try to get out of the contract you sign with the UN. You had better read it through clearly before you sign on the line. Life is far easier when you have a way to flee your government, like going to the free seas. But they aren't free for you if you sign with the UN. And where will you flee when you want to leave an ocean-UN when there is nowhere else to go except another country? Revelation 13:1, "And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name."
