"Snowball earth?"

"A proper snowball Earth would leave us in a far worse situation than a global flood. A slushball Earth, though, I could see that potentially being viable."

"Yes that could work, so, but let's not put it to a vote yet. Not everybody has voiced their opinion."

"Mm, you both seem to be missing my point. The fleets would merely be the measure by which we would survive the initial flood. I reiterate, once the waters have calmed, we could, provided we prepared properly, use submersibles and divers to build up supports from the new sea floors, pump them empty, and thus have both cities above the waves and access to mineral resources in dry conditions. Furthermore, oceans are a ready source of a large range of the things necessary for life, including food, salt, water for desalinization, and easy generation of electricity."

"Well, look at it this way - if we go for a slushball Earth, then we have only a thin band around the equator that is still livable for humans. If we take the flood, the entire Earth is still inhabitable, especially once we work on submersible technology in whatever enclaves of land remain, if any, or on our ships. And the ocean, as I am sure you must know, is indeed a place of great natural bounty if properly exploited. All that we need to do is survive the initial flood."

""When" is a question I can answer to. April 1st in 2018."

"I'll be willing to vote for a flood if we find an alternate way to survive as well, as a backup plan. How about before the flood, we build an airtight base on land. That way, when the flood happens, we can be safely inside. We could even build submersibles for it before the flood. We could create a system that transports air from the surface down to the base.

If we agree to this, I'll vote for a flood. We could survive indefinitely if we do this, as an addition to boats."

"Why, that's a capital idea! Well thought, and it certainly has my support as an amendment to the scenario."

"I don't want to influence your decision, but great flood seems better option than slushball earth to me. Ocean is literally sea of treasures. Sea alone can feed all survivors even without any agricultural systems on ships. On high seas you can escape bad weather and can salvage anything and everything that remains under water. On slushball scenario I think you would be restricted to single location, to agricultural systems alone and all salvage operations would be extremely hard, if not impossible. Of couse life on sea is not without dangers, but in my inexperienced opinion it seems better option."

So, should we put the flood, with the amendment, to a vote already?

"Let's. Once again, those in favor of great flood rise your hand. Those against please propose alternative scenario."
