“Enviros are hypocrites. They will tell you that nature needs to take it’s course and that humans interfere in the “natural order” of things.”

They make perfect sense if their agenda is to interfere with human development. All they do is put up roadblocks — to anything.

Oh yeah, just barely. The joint project in early planning stages some years ago called for a canal and tunnel (the intervening heights are hundreds of feet), and a hydroelectric installation that would never A) pay for itself (the important part) and B) would never run fast enough to overcome evaporation at some point after the Dead Sea’s level rose some distance, meaning the Galilee would never be submerged.
