Mubarak, Egypt: The Toshka Project is an
amazing attempt to convert a half million acres of desert landscape into
arable land. The Mubarak Pumping Station is at the center of this
effort, and will channel millions of cubic feet of water per hour. It
will ultimately redirect 10% of the country’s water from the Nile and
will increase the inhabitable land in Egypt by as much as 25%
