okay, this had me right up until he announced that this was more than philosophy - That he wanted me to sign up. I could sign up, but that wouldn't make water world a reality - ever.
Did he really just suggest we abandon land and live on floating islands?

He forgot about storms, waves, wind, fuels, food, environmental effects, ocean wildlife, and so much more.

@Sagemind
agreed my friend but ill vote it up because im a sucker for new ideas.

Actually, if you watch the previous videos in this series (listed in the menu at the end of this one), you'll see that he did not at all "forget" about fuels, food, environmental effects. . . In fact, those are the topics that the previous videos address.

The claim is that seasteading will address the problems of food, fuel, and environment.... But you have to watch the videos before you know that. Select the cause you care about to navigate to the appropriate video.


The video also estimates that only about 13% of the population will live on these seasteads. You, of course, won't be among them since, it's unlikely (albeit possible) that you'll start re-programming your mind, at this point. As some have said before me, for any new model to be widely accepted, you have to wait for the older generations to die. In the meantime, it's good educate the younger ones.

Moving this video to Trancecoach's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
