The researcher who fell in love with the coral reefs - and became a fighter for their preservation

A Lifetime Achievement Award was awarded as part of the 51st Annual Science and Environment Conference to Prof. Yossi Levia. In a celebratory interview, he talks about his love for the profession, the corals and the researchers who grew up in his laboratory - and also warns: "Ktsa'a could cause an unprecedented ecological disaster on our reefs and those of our neighbors to the south."
The condensate from the rig is planned to be piped through an underwater pipeline that is currently located at Dor Beach to the coast where it will mix in a ratio of up to 3 percent (which will dramatically reduce its volatility) with the crude oil that is flowed through the Katsa pipeline to the refineries.
