Are these the answer to the threat of rising sea levels? One architect believes floating cities could offer a safe haven for people who have lost their homes to flooding.

Rather than building up our city's defences with dams, architect Vincent Callebaut has put forward an alternative future for the victims of rising water if current climate change predictions take affect.

The floating ecopolis, inspired by Amazonian lilypads, are designed to be completely self-sufficient in both power and water, through solar power, wind turbines and rainfall collection.

Rainwater isn't healthy to drink for extended periods of time... So a ton of energy would be given to desalinization of sea water I believe.
