The Open_Sailing project is an international community of scientists, engineers, architects and many others who are trying to develop an International Ocean Station. The open-source project aims to create something similar to the International Space Station on the sea, a place where people can study the ocean and learn to live sustainably in a marine environment. The project began as an apocalyptic design response unit, but has evolved into a voluntary community of amateurs, inventors and scientists who study everything from aquaculture to desalination. The creators of this ocean station are working to develop a truly innovative “city” design that will become compact during storms and sail when winds are favorable. Learn more.

But in some parts of the world, entire countries are at risk of vanishing beneath the seas.

Whether it’s rising sea levels, desertification, melting glaciers or ocean acidification, climate change is rapidly altering the landscape of our planet. We may be one of the last generations to see some of the Earth’s most cherished places.

Is the CIA’s climate work on the chopping block?
Intelligence analysts have long kept tabs on variables like changing weather patterns as a predictor of regional instability — but it’s safe to say that any climate program will be scrutinized by the GOP caucus.
