Why Kuwait Is Building This Strange City

This idea is perfectly fine in order to establish salt water shrimp and fish farms, even transplanted mangrove forests or edible salt loving plants that can be used as fodder for livestock. This was done by an Israeli company that made this experiment in Ethiopia. Once the project was abandoned the canals filled up because nobody was able to or willing to maintain them and all the life they created had collapsed. What you'll end up with is smelly canals that can only be used a boat docks and not viable as beach front real estate. In time the canals will fill up with sand if they are not meticulously maintained. Such a project is expensive and requires too much effort to maintain. Not to mention the problems of stench caused by stagnant pools of sea water. For agricultural purposes the project can work but a cost benefit analysis should be done to figure out whether such a project has value. With enough Third World cheap labor some form of equilibrium between rural and residential usage could be achieved.
