AQUA
Homo Aqua
The homo aqua is a fictional transhuman from the Netherlands, post flood. In the future the Netherlands will be under water for a large part, because of the rising waterlevel. Through evolution, the human body will adapt to this new situation and will be able to live in and outside the water.
My interest in the waterlevel of the Netherlands comes from my parents, who are both marine biologists, but mostly from my father, whose work is partly about keeping the dikes healthy which keep the Netherlands from flooding.
I imagine life in the Netherlands post flood will be very close to the way we live now. But in some parts you'll have to walk or even swim through water instead of walking down the street. The dutch can be very stubborn so they won't give up on the life they're used to. They will biologically adapt to the new waterlife over the years. What this is going to look like is what I want to research.
