Today Yishai explained to us that the Dead Sea is evaporating and receding at a rate of 3 feet per year! This is because of overuse of water in the Jordan River and other reasons.
The UN is having a contest to choose the current 7 natural wonders of the world, and the Dead Sea is a finalist. If it wins, it may get the attention that it needs to try to stop its evaporation.
