Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Floating Island Nation ?





Yes , and two years ago , I had even named it  :



United States of Migrants  [  25  April  2016  ]





From following news report , it seems I was not far off !








Extract :


The Floating Island Project is a very real collaboration between the Seasteading Institute and Blue Frontiers


The team hopes to launch the first settlement by 2020, as Futurism previously reported.


In an interview with CNBC, Nathalie Mezza-Garcia –researcher for the Floating Island Project – spoke about the project’s goals to create hundreds of floating island-nations, where people could live by whatever rules they so please. 


Other goals include: 


housing refugees who are displaced as climate change gives rise to higher sea levels, enriching the poor, curing the sick, feeding the hungry, living in balance with nature, and powering the world.
