Why no one ever tried to flood this place?
>bored at work
>playing with map
>notice a huge depression in Egypt
>check the dept
>over -100m in some points (sea level)
>no town in this fucking hole

Give me one reason why egypt should not build a channel (less than 50000km) and build a huge artificial lake?
They would increase they farm land. They would have a cheap transportation to the center of the country using the channel.
Red pill me /int/.

It's a desert m8.
>>
>>79472737
Yes. It's a desert with extremely low humidity.
Can we fix it?

Also, i am not fucking blind.

I just discover that hug trees destroyed the project.
Apparently, the desert is more important that the people surviving it.

Take off the autism goggles for a moment and really think about it. What does a lake need to be sustained?
>>
>>79472647
Um, the Nazis had a plan for it...
>>
>>79473308
Water.
A shame that 50000km away from the hole did not exist a body of water...
>>
>>79472647
It would dry up like that seasonal lake in Tunisia
>>
>>79473933
Not with continuous flow from the Mediterranean sea.
>>
yeah, you could make the Dead Sea 2: Deadest Sea by pumping Mediterranean brackish water into it.
but the better result is, that it would filter into ground water and gradually moisten Western Egypt.
>>
>>79473783
No, rain, you fucking idiot. Rain and a watertable.
>>
it could also serve as a huge evaporation basin to make rain in the general area.
>>
>>79474028
With a continuous influx from Mediterranean sea, it would never dried up.
>>79473999
Yeah, it will be extremely salty since the soil is already salty and the amount of water that will evaporate will left tons of salt.
>>
>>79474080
Yes, it will also increase he air humidity for Chad and Sudan (looking at the wind map)
>>
>>79473991
Wouldn't it just get unusably salty as the surface water evaporates off
>>
>>79474241
>as the surface water evaporates off
Yes, but it will fill again since the channel would not be blocked.
As our Israel friend said. It will be another dead sea.
But solar desalinations are practical. And guess who is almost in the equator line? (you can pump salty water from the lake and desalinate it to pump to farm land)
>>
>>79472647
The Egyptian government doesn't attempt projects that are too complex for the average Egyptian to comprehend, only meme shit like expanding the Suez canal.
t. egyptian

I doubt the egyptian desert is in need of huge salt water lake m8
>>
>>79472647
>>79473783

What?

>>79475090
WTF, i did not even know where i got this number.

Yes, because salt water is so good to farming.
>>
>>79475505
Desalination plants and increase in the rain would not help?
>>
>>79475582
>Desalination plants
You don't need a huge fucking lake for that.
>increase in the rain
It's really close to sea, so I doubt anything going to change.

And I don't understand why Egypt would need anything like that. Nile providing more than enough farmlands.
>>
>>79475704
The mountain niggers are building a dam,the nile will dry up
>>
>>79477420
Is this true?
>>
>>79477696
Is this true?
Yes, Ethiopia's Renaissance dam should reduce the Nile's water level in Egypt and Sudan by a quite a bit
>>
>>79478427
They can do it?
>>
>>79478427
>Ethiopia's Renaissance dam
>Once completed, the reservoir will take from 5 to 15 years to fill with water.
This mean, 5 to 15 years without a decent flow of water?
>>
>>79478558
Not an expert on dams, but I guess that will happen
>>
>mfw fucking ethiopia is publicly declaring they're gonna cuck Egypt and Egyptians are too full of 6a3meye to care

There's a similar project at mi Uni, the depression it's -37 below sea. The hydroelectric potential with tide cycles it's really big.

Now is also under discussion the construction of a nuclear power plant in the province, and other dams with more priority. But a 80 km long lake in the desert wil be nice, there's only salt now.
