Israel and neighbor Jordan team up to save the Dead Sea

The Dead Sea – located on the lowest spot on Earth – is drying up, putting a unique ecology and world-famous destination at risk.

So Israel and Jordan are creating a water-sharing initiative that will help prevent the Dead Sea from evaporating, which would happen by 2050 if these cooperative measure weren’t taken.

Beyond saving the beloved lake, this historic agreement will also help people who need drinking water.
