Every day, the Dead Sea loses the equivalent of 600 Olympic pools of water, said Noam Bedein, founder of the nonprofit Dead Sea Revival Project.

In an effort to prevent the sea from “vanishing completely,” Bedein is auctioning 100 of his Dead Sea photographs on OpenSea, the world’s largest NFT (non-fungible token) marketplace, from March 22 (World Water Day) to April 22 (Earth Day).
