We also have a plan to preserve the Dead Sea environment in certain locations, as described on the website.

Sea or the Red Sea to the Dead sea, then would the water level go up to the normal sea level of any sea or ocean? would it be 400m higher than now? And would that reduce the salinity of the Dead sea and be able to suport fish life and algae? Hope to get an answer. Adam from Catalonia.
