Floating Paradise: Maldives to Build Floating City to Adapt to Rising Sea Levels

Due to significant rising sea levels in Maldives, an independent island country in the north-central Indian Ocean, Dutch Docklands is working with the Maldives government to build an 'ultra-luxury floating private island'. The 200-hectare floating city will resemble a coral reef structure and powered by renewable energy to reduce carbon emissions and fight against climate change.
