Dubai Globe Sinking Back into the Sea

Dubai becomes very popular after Nakheel Properties build artificial island in shallow sea dam. The foundations created within five years, from 11billion cubic feet of sand and 47 million tonnes of rock. When it was launched in 2003 many celebrities and the super-rich snap up the 300 islands, which made up a map of the globe. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt who were still together at that time is one of them. Recently, super-luxury residential development which is completed with super luxury Hotel Atlantis called “Palm Jumeirah” is hampered because of many reason include bad global recession yesterday. Developer's even a lot of debt arrears. And now, even the unfinished project or may never be completed, the bad news came, NASA picture suggests Dubai globe is sinking back into the sea. The stunning image of the man-made archipelago was taken by an astronaut far above our Earth on the International Space Station.
It shows the World Islands development, sitting in shallow waters just off Dubai's coast. The image was captured on January 13, 2010, by a member of the ISS Expedition 22 crew. He used a £3,000 Nikon D2Xs digital camera with a focal length of 400 mm to take the photograph. It was then enhanced to improve contrast.
Actually, Dubai's development has long been criticized by environmental activists, who say the construction of artificial islands hurts coral reefs and even shifts water currents. It is also lead growing water and power consumption. This also destroy beautiful God’s made.
And now when the bad effects start to appear, we can say that Dubay Project could be a greatest folly.
