I've been looking for a stream of this forever, actually bought the DVD months ago when I couldn't find one. It's an excellent thought experiment in how a 100 family seafloor community would be built over the next ten years using existing materials and technologies.

>well i guess the buildings just build themselves and report to humans ready for being lowered using even more machinery that assembled themselves with no help at all from polluting equipments

No, this is incorrect. You seem to have many misconceptions about how these structures are built. They are assembled in shipyards typically, the point is that the pollution happens on land rather than in the sea and the disruption of the environment involved in building a structure on land simply doesn't occur.

>it makes perfect sense, let's go live under the sea

I'm glad you feel that way.

No large percentage will ever live as permanent residents of the sea, but a handful of subsea communities will bloom as the wealthy seek unspoiled natural beauty, the adventurous seek a new frontier, and those employed by nearby farms and mines move to where the work is. These will not be new nations but extensions of existing states, although there will one day be people born beneath the sea who feel no inclination to surface.
