Topic Reading-Vol.623-12/25/2013

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Mid-East governments sign Red Sea-to-Dead Sea water deal.
The Red Sea lies between Asia, Saudi Arabia, and Africa, Egypt, and is a seawater inlet of the Indian Ocean. Therefore, is has a plenty of water.
The Dead Sea is a salt lake that lies 400 meters below sea level, the lowest elevation on land. It is known as the world's saltiest bodies of water, nearly 10 times as salty as the ocean. You might have seen a man reading the newspaper floating on the water in a photo.
This salty lake is losing water because less water is flowing in than evaporating into the air. Are there any solutions to this unique lake, which is surrounded by Jordan, Israel and Palestine, states that rarely do something together other than exchanging fires?
Enjoy reading and learning what human ingenuity and unity could create.
