A sketch of the Menorah Islands Project |
In the long-term, the project sees an opportunity to create peace between hostile Middle Eastern neighbors by serving as a unifying force through economic collaboration and mutual benefit. The entire complex aims to be the greenest artificial island project ever attempted by utilizing solar power and other environmentally friendly power generating methods.
The Menorah Islands Project artificial islands concept could also incorporate several other environmentally-savvy technologies, including passive systems in place of heating and air conditioning; wind and solar power; and electric car charging stations to encourage gas-free travel.

About the Menorah Islands Project
The Menorah Islands Project is a concept for a group of nine artificial islands -- seven permanent and two that emerge from the water -- off the coast of Israel in the Mediterranean Sea. A beautiful place to live, work and vacation, the Menorah Islands would be a world center for education, a model for environmentally-friendly practices, a showcase for emerging technologies, and would be a safe haven for people of all religions and races.
