The Mediterranean sea has 2/1000 of the volume of all ocean. So by rule of thumb, the level would decrease by 15m (if 3mm on all oceans)... That's really, really huge. How would we deal with it ? Obviously it wouldn't go down as much because there's water coming from the Atlantic ocean (+time scale) But how would it be affected ?

Another place this could be done is Lake Ayre in Australia its a large area below sea level where the ground is already saltier than the ocean and its not extremely far from the coast

Way too many holes in this idea. I was at the ruins on the shores of the Med in Israel. The natural man made baths made by the Romans on the shores of the Mediterranean are still there, and havnt changed in thousands of years and could still be used today as they aren’t deep in the ocean.

It would be much better to fill the depression with fresh water from the Nile.

I went to the Texas coast about 4 years ago.....I visited the same beach I went to for 40 years. It was not relocated or restructured in any way......I wander how this "researcher " would explain that?

Thank you,

Interesting subject, very poorly presented.

He forgot the hydro electric power.

You deliver compelling ideas and a very interesting plan. If only you could deliver it without patronizing the audience and talking to them with oversimplified analogies and snarky obnoxious stating of the obvious. An easy layer of credibility would be achieved by having a public speaker deliver your message and ask you questions about your plan, since you're the expert but clearly not the best public speaker. You get to be the guest panellist and avoid insulting the intelligence of your audience all at the same time. Big win for everyone.

The earth is in a cooling period. It’s way more likely our civilization will fall to another ice age than global warming. Stop believing propaganda and start actually learning what’s happening. The only problem flooding the Qattara Depression would solve is Egypts population issues. Egypt has a population of 112 million, 95% of that population lives in along the tiny strip along the Nile. I say tiny comparative to the actual size of Egypt. Only about 10.5% of Egypt’s land is livable. Flooding the depression would give a decent chance of making more of that land livable and allow relief to the land around the Nile. Rising sea level is not an issue that this will solve.

Sea level rise is not even close to being a threat to our civilization. The biggest threat is nuclear war right now, then pole shifts, then a CME.

I'm sold. Let's do it.

Isaiah 35:1-2 KJV The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. [2] It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.

Can someone please tell me what happens to the salt when water evaporates from the depression?

It suits Egypt to fill the Qattara depression, with drinkable water. But it suits the world to fill it with seawater.

Why does this presentation inspire ZERO confidence? Is this for a college thesis? Sounds so fantastically utopian.

Sounds a lot nicer than whatever Bin Salman's up to

Go Green!!! Explore👍🏾

lol 21:51 ass :D :D

Filtering the water is as silly as trying to generate electricity from the flow and is as silly as building a tunnel to get the water there... you can create evaporation reservoirs where the concentrated sediment is later mined and processed. Much more efficient. And the energy from the elevation difference can pull the water up an overland pipe via siphon. No energy required. No tunneling required. And the whole point is to foster life and counter desertification- sea level rise is not the why- you miss the whole point in the first min. But if you are pursing thirs project still, i 🙏for your success! Just change the pitch a pinch

So you said this depression long time ago was filled with water, that means there was a civilization around it? Maybe there's more to discover in this empty land and not assume it's just a bunch of naked sands.

Hey! Can you release it?

Can you release the map?

Why don’t you fill up the Grand Canyon?

simple answer: no you can't

Increased agriculture and aquaculture are also a big financial benefit.

My theory from experience is that once the depression is filled with water the ground level will shrink deeper much further due to contractions😊

This is how global warming is solved. If only we can desalinate the water. Desalination is very easy and cheap but it would be great to keep the ocean salt in the ocean some how

Most likely the same from assassins creed origins

Do the same thing but with the basin of Paleolithic lake lahontan in Nevada

Only smoke

Sure, with garbage. Safer than building a mountain.

Sea levels are not rising. I'm so sick and tired of these lies.

This is so overoptimistic on so many levels. One of many there's big risk if you create this lake you will end up with big salt lake (due to yours evaporation).

I feel the only way you would get multiple countries to do this for the world's sake is to have multiple desalination plants pumping fresh water there. That way it doesn't contaminate aquifers.

They chose to live that close to the water, so I really don't care about them!!!

Dream on

Elevation: -86 m Area: 3,000 square miles (7,800 km2) Coordinates: 36°14′49″N 116°49′01″W / 36.24694°N 116.81694°W Floor elevation: −282 ft (−86 m)

It seems very stupid to store sea salty water while we can store the river water to help the people to plant and drink 😅

Great job you did, that was revolutionary... I am hoping that you would make a presentation about Chot Melghigh sea in the Algerian Tunisian Sahara desert... I would be so grateful thank you

Stay out of Egypt with this shit project

Shit project , you will wast a land

One lake will cool the planet? Hmmmmmm

In the 1950s, there was a proposal to use 215 nuclear bombs to excavate all the dirt for the channel. However, Egypt turned down the plan. Don't know why :)

If the rain would be true as described at 13:54, then it would rain all over the sahara as the wind comes from the mediteranean sea.

AWESOME. Wowwww

this kid needs to re educate himself so much miss information

Egypt just has security problems. That's why all of that is on hold.

??? Care to explain the carbon belching volcanos in Iceland. Seems to me that it may be getting mighty hot up there...yes. The "Elites" are the 1% gobbling all the beachfront property despite all of the "Climate change" rhetoric they're pushing. 🤔 hmm.
