The struggle, the compromise, the concession, and the symbiosis between man and nature. Since the Industrial Revolution, the pace of urbanization has increased. The quality of life and the material needs of industry have gradually increased as urbanization has risen. The increase in the circulation of goods and the level of human consumption has been accompanied by a rapid rise in GDP. In contrast, the development of industrial production, technology, and the extraction and use of fossil fuels has increased CO2 emissions, while urbanization has led to a sharp reduction in green forests and wetlands, resulting in a lack of reasonable purification of CO2. The problem is becoming increasingly serious in most countries at the same time. The problem is particularly acute in the United States, where rising sea levels caused by global warming are slowly eroding and submerging the land in the southern coastal cities. Miami is one of the worst areas for sea level rise and at the current rate of sea level rise, experts predict that the city will be history in less than 100 years, leaving residents with the question of where to go from here. Will they continue to retreat and compromise with nature? Or do they choose to fight it? I will design new building models that live in symbiosis with nature and use environmentally friendly energy
