Climate Change - Urban Relocation Proposals

in #design7 years ago

Hello Steemians readers,

We previously shared a post title: Climate Change - Year 2268 - The Flooding Cities
a post which focus in one of the urban research studies of Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture, the architecture discipline of @projections.

In this post the focus is about @projections Urban Design Post Graduation thesis.

The issue of Climate Change for many is irreversible, while for others it is some sort of fake news.

By the current evidence from the Geological Survey of Denmark & Greenland, the survey states that since 2012 over 30 feet or hundreds of cubics kilometers of ice, melt into the sea from Kangerlussuaq Greenland landscape.

The source of evidence which can't be ignored.

Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture Urban Interventions , is an urban design relocation program designed for the urban relocation of coastal cities from UK and Brazil to new cities with an urban expansion design proposal.

Opa! Urban Interventions design studies

Opa! Urban Interventions, the relocation design & research studies is primarily urban relocations proposals to offer the communities of those red flag alert flooding cities, a proactive approach as oppose as the end of the world paranoia kind of approach of others, which take into account the quality of design and the value of budget, finance and return on investment - ROI.

In the USA, whoever you're a climate change activist or skeptic, one is able to find out about the issue of the state of Florida, specially the city of Miami.

Philipe Lavine, the mayor of Miami, has an urban planning proposal already in action for Miami flooding prevention scheme which total US$500 million for 50 years preventive measures.

Half a billion USA dollars of tax payers contribution for 50 years prevention.

This is where Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture Urban Interventions the research design & studies proposal programme of @ projections PhD thesis comes into place.

Rather than an expensive expenditure plan to prevent flooding Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture Urban Interventions relocation programme proposal is to actually begin the relocation process of an entire coastal city, where the financial expenditure, it's investment, would rather go (be invested) to the expansion of another, more geographic secure city flooding wisely speaking.

In this post @projections share an extract of our in house working in progress publication.

The city of Liverpool - England UK, a city of 500 000 inhabitants, is also a city which will be drastically affected by the sea level rise and will eventually be flooded.

Where are going those half a million people?

Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture Urban Interventions relocation programme proposal for the city of Liverpool goes to the expansion of the adjacent, more geographic secure city of Wolverhampton, a city of 100 000 inhabitants, located far away from the coast in a solid and dry ground securely protected from any flooding damage.

Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture Urban Interventions relocation programme proposal for the city of Wolverhampton is an urban expansion from 100 000 inhabitants to 1 million inhabitants.

At Liverpool flooding ground the proposal is to harness the power of water and design the hydroelectric of Liverpool which can produce over 1 GWh of clean energy to add to the grid of Uk electricity consumption itself.

In terms of investment and community finance return or simply the ROI Return On Investment specially in the city of Miami - Florida which involves tax payers contributions, the city of Miami is not approaching the issue in the right direction and should seriously consider alternative measures like Opa! Urban relocation Programme itself.

For a question of time and availability, we are unfortunately not working for USA flooding cities, still we advise that an urban relocation programme for the state of Florida residents towards the geographic dry, safe lands of the states of Georgia or even Tennessee is definitely a better tax payers ROI.

Opa! - Optical Perspective Architecture Urban Interventions relocation programme proposals is a private initiative of @projections initiatives, where Guarani-GUA - The Philanthropic crypto is one of it's investments source.

In Design We Trust.

For the benefit of all.

Namaste
