Is Dead Sea rehabilitation dead in the water? – Without a present plan in motion to stabilize the Dead Sea, which does not naturally receive enough water to sustain itself, the landscape will continue to deteriorate around it, endangering Israel’s tourism and the lives of its southern citizens; can it be saved, or is it a lost cause? | ynetnews
Being more than 300 meters deep, upwards of 33% saline, and lying more than 430 meters below mean sea level, the Dead Sea holds the records for deepest hypersaline lake and lowest land-based elevation on the planet making it one of the world’s leading tourist attractions.
However, it may soon no longer exist. The fact of the matter is that the Dead Sea is not naturally receiving enough water to sustain itself, causing it to recede at a surprising rate of 1.2 meters (nearly four feet) every year.
