A submerged tunnel floats underwater, supported by buoyancy, with cables anchoring it to prevent floating up or sinking down. It has advantages over bridges such as being lighter and experiencing less stress during earthquakes. Submerged tunnels can be constructed by dredging a trench, casting tunnel elements, transporting them to the site, and lowering them into place before sealing the joints and backfilling over top. While requiring specialized marine construction, the technique is often less risky than other tunneling methods and allows for faster construction between shores.

Everyone asks what a futurist does – well even the most powerful people need help to take the lens caps off! Our job is to help leaders ensure that in the decisions we make today we are creating real strategic options for the future
http://www.borev.net/imf.jpg
We need a plan B, C and D because none of us can be sure how the future will play out – but these are all viable options from where we stand today
The first pattern of change I’d like to talk about is the fundamental shift happening in the global population. Based on current projections, by 2050 the growth in Asia will be bigger than the entire population of North America and Europe combined. Hispanics could be one fourth of the US population within ten years So this raises the question how well represented are we among minorities / should we be targeting them In the last 30 years, China has taken more than 400 million people out of poverty and across the developing world this pattern is being repeated – a trend that is helping to drive shifts in the distribution of economic power and wealth across the globe...
