Blue Revolution Foundation - Living on Water
Discover how architects, scientists, and engineers are shaping the future of life on water. This documentary explores floating communities and cities as a solution to rising sea levels and climate change.
Living on water: a solution for the future?
In the documentary 'Is Our Future on Water', you see how building on water can offer an answer to climate change. Rising sea levels pose a threat to coastal cities worldwide. Therefore, architects, scientists, and engineers are investigating how people can adapt to life on the water. They are developing floating neighborhoods, innovative infrastructures, and new methods for food and energy production.
The Blue Revolution Take a Closer Look
The film delves into the ideas behind the 'blue revolution' and follows the people working on potential future residential areas. Until recently, these areas seemed like science fiction. By highlighting various projects and scientists in the Netherlands and abroad, the documentary shows the ambitions and complexity of designing for an uncertain future. Floating architecture can be a sustainable alternative, or a technological stopgap measure that exacerbates the deeper causes of the climate crisis rather than addresses them.
