all focus seems to be on global warming these few months...rising sea level... flooding, drought.
oh well... since part of europe is sinking, will singapore submerge into the water one day... haha... hmm.... possible but highly-unlikely...cuz there are indonesia and malaysia arounding us..


I watched one of the documentary about Global Warming last week and its quite scary knowing that the Arctic is thawing rapidly. Shrinking and thinning of ice cap. Even winter cold has not been refreezing compared to the few years back. Poor Polars... how are they going to survive??(Guess the polar bears in Alaska should migrate to Singapore Zoological Garden... at least they will be feed.) haha... anyway, the US government have named Polar bears as a species threatened with extinction due to the declines in bear survival.


And in the documentary, they showed a polar bear swimming for days in the whole Arctic Ocean without any ice cap for it to rest on. only small cubes of it that cant even hold the weight of the bear's paw. that will happen if the temperature rise and ice cap melting constantly. No land for polars that will make them swim and swim till they reach another country or find something to rest on, on the sea. (will they die due to exhastion after weeks of swimming??)?????not sure..




















Anyway, i found out an interesting news.
cuz parts of Europe are sinking and houseboats become a common sight, Netherlands are actually designing building that floats on sea water to cope with rising sea level. They are regular houses and their foundation allow them to rise as water levels rise.. The houses have a hollow concrete cube at the base and are anchored by two vertical columns that can withstand a rise in the water of up to 4m. Can you imagine yourself staying in these floating residential buildings, roads and office building?? maybe 50 years down the road when everything is submerge into the sea...


hmm...wouldnt it be easier for people who wanna commit suicide, as in just jump into the sea??? oh..people who love fishing will like this idea... fishing at anywhere, anytime.. oh well, just thinking too much...
