Still, there's no way to know how modern-day human interventions will interact with future climate change to affect the Dead Sea.Somehow I knew that was coming.

That very dry period many millennia ago was much hotter than it is today, said Jiwchar Ganor, an environmental geochemist at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel. Impossible. Climate never changed until the Industrial Revolution. Why are these guys drilling holes? The science is settled.

Just drill a tunnel to the Mediterranean.
It’s been 5 million years since that dried up.

The Dead Sea is in a riff valley and as you see is is slowly spreading apart. There is an inactive volcano under the Dead
Sea that on occasion belches a little smoke and smell of sulpher.

Don’t blame me! I know nothing about it!
Even if I did know anything, how was I supposed to know that giant plugs underwater should be left alone, and not removed from their holes?

Amazing! During exceptionally long wet or dry periods, the Dead Sea level also fluctuates drastically! Who’da thunk it?
