10/23/23: Revolutionizing Paradise

The Maldives, often dubbed as 'Paradise on Earth', is a breathtaking archipelago with over 2,000 islands and atolls, boasting a rich marine biodiversity. But did you know that by 2100, this paradise could be entirely submerged due to rising sea levels? To combat this imminent threat, the nation is innovating with the construction of a floating city, designed to rise with the sea, housing up to 20,000 residents.

On another note, the global construction industry, responsible for nearly 40% of the world's carbon emissions, is undergoing a transformation. New laws and a growing demand for sustainability are driving the shift towards green building materials and practices. From bamboo and recycled steel to the whimsical cob-made homes reminiscent of hobbit abodes, the future of construction is not just eco-friendly but also economically efficient.
