Is this the future, in a world where the ocean rises?

Same-bajau is a native people in Seaborne from South-East Asia, sometimes called sea nomads. Within thousands of years they lived on a beach shore on the beach, pretending to water without a grilling equipment and holding extreme durations. But many crises threaten their way of life in the early 21st century. Fishing industry fishing, pollution and fence toward their food supplies, and Increase in sea level encircled their houses on the beach.
In 2035, a community of Bajau people living at Sabah’s coast, northern Borneo, who built the seed funds to build a modern floating and subsea community. They work with Deepa manufacturer of Undersea houses, build a network of rafts and submarine houses, making a business model repeated by other maritime communities threatened to climb sea level. Rivers of income include opportunities for extreme vacations, scientific research facilities and anti-aging clinics.
Initial residence is a series of rafts and platforms with tunnels connecting the subsea level. People live in the above structures, but, as it is accustomed to, increasingly used subsea places for food and sleep as well as storage. Residences were built using a 3D printing method called Wire Arc Additive Manufacturingallowing further strength to add to regions experiencing the most pressure.
Deeper structures are maintained by ambient pressure – the pressure of surrounding water – and at the atmospheric pressure corresponding to the surface. In ambient modules below 20 meters deep, the aquanaut breathes a specialist mixed gases to prevent pressure disease. Anyone leaving a deep module should undergo decompression to return to the normal atmospheric pressure. However, the advantage of the ambient module, however, it can be suited to the moon doors – pools of opening the floor directly into the ocean. Aquanauts can swim directly into the deep oceans, for entertainment, research and farming activities.
Subsea hotels for extreme tourism become popular. on GalapagosTourists can stay at Hydro-Rift Hotel, over a mile deep, and take trips to hydrothermal vents, witness some unusual lives on the planet. Everywhere, scientists use modules to study life deep. Seabed mapping failed and, for many years, researchers checked more than the ocean than used to be visited. Many advances are made in understanding and even talking to whales and other organisms in the deep sea.

Bajau is already adapted to the life of the sea. More than thousands of years spent living in the sea, they have improved big spleensthat gives them more oxygen-holding red blood cells than common people. Some Bajau Divers spent up to 5 hours per day underwater, and they avoided free – without using the compressed air – up to 70 meters long until 15 minutes. Once they have moved to the subseas of subses, some bajau rejects the part, spent most of their time underwater and choose for the body and even editing their nature. This includes deliberately rupturing In the ear drum to improve the progress of depth, while the deep diving used in bacaffarttant in their lungs to help them collapse in sea mammals.

Some communities are offered Clinical treatments at a depth. The first research declares that exposure to uninterrupted daily pressytyized oxygen sessions, known as Hyperbaric oxygen therapyThere are benefits for a variety of medical conditions and age-related diseases. People with regular hyperbaric sessions have longer telomeres and Increased Danger clearance (senescent) cellsthe two factors known to develop long life. Deep modules have become popular with rich old people who look forward to their lives, and give a valuable source of income.
Most Maritime communities have enough, which produces all foods they need through the aquaculture of fish, molluscs and development of other plants above. The energy is given to a mixture of solar, air, wave and hydrothermal power, according to location. Other tourism specialists, some of the medical facilities, some of the carbon storage; Many oceans grow, which drowned it in the depths and sold carbon credits.
Sea Life is not for everyone. But modules give people more dangerous from climate change, and provide ways to shape their own careers and life at sea level.
