The Dead Sea region is one of the most unique natural wonders on earth. But for decades, it has been a victim of aggressive, offensive, and dangerous industrial activity under the auspices of "Israel Chemicals" the Ofer family-owned corporation. Now there is a new threat of destruction in the region, if approval is granted for Re'em company's plan for devastating and outdated oil shale production at the Rotem plant. Oil shale is one of the most polluting methods to produce energy and the project at Rotem will poison the area's air and soil. Utilizing such a carbon-intensive and polluting fuel will drag Israel decades backward as the world struggles with the climate crisis and transitions to renewable energy. Greenpeace Israel calls the minister of energy and the local planning committee to stop the oil shale disaster.
