>oh wow. i thought sci is smart but they still fall for the electric -> zero emission BS.

If you recall, I mentioned power would come from tidal turbines in the gulf stream. Consequently both the process of producing electricity and using it in vehicles would produce no emissions.

This is only one example of an underwater habitat. Many such projects exist that are considerably larger. In 1963 a small village was established on the ocean floor, called Conshelf II. It can be seen here.

Additionally, the reason food was delivered by divers is because Biosub 1 was sunk in a flooded quarry. There were no fish to eat. Historical habitats like Sealab I and II included exterior traps to provide daily fresh food for the aquanauts onboard.

Get in here, seabros. :3

Here's what it looked like during use; On the far right, the onion shaped submersible docking station. To the left, an equipment shed. In the center, the 'starfish house', a five roomed lodge including hot showers, carpeted floors, reel to reel stereo systems, a gourmet chef and every comfort an aquanaut could ask for. Unlike most habitats of the period which had large ugly weight trays on the bottom to hold them underwater, Conshelf II's modules integrated the weight into the hull itself, making for a more elegant design, and one which could be adjusted for level floors on any terrain using telescoping lunar lander style legs.
