Which of these seas is becoming three feet (1 m) shallower each year?
Correct answer: Dead Sea
I am not a number.
It is an endorheic lake which means it has no outflow. The water is evaporating faster than the River Jordan is supplying. At the south end, there are commercial works removing salt.
There has been talk about building a canal from the Red Sea to supply water, although I don't know if that will happen. They would have to be careful to remove any living being from the supply as no life can survive in the Dead Sea.
