Death of the Dead Sea?

1 The historical Dead Sea is a lake that cannot sustain plant or animal life. 2 Its salt levels are fatal to almost any living thing that enters it. 3 Yet the Dead Sea now faces death of a different kind. 4 The area around the Dead Sea is incredibly hot and dry; that condition causes the water in the lake to evaporate. 5 One of its tributaries is the Jordan River. 6 Water from the Jordan is growing scarce, however, because people are using much of that water for industry. 7 According to scientists, the future of the Dead Sea looks uncertain. 8 The Dead Sea's water level becomes lower every year. 9 Unless surrounding countries change their industrial practices, the lake is doomed. 10 It could be completely dry by 2050.
