Ethiopia and Sudan across the Egyptian flood plain.Now that the flooding is controlled，the Nile irrigates farms all along the former flood plain.Both the flood plain and the delta are losing fertility as the mineral sediments usually carried and deposited by the Nile are building up behind the many dams constructed along the length of the river.The Nile adds humidity to the Egyptian climate，but most of the country is still a desert.The delta provides much of the arable land of the country and there farmers grow corn，rice，wheat and many other subsistence and cash crops.This area provides much of the food for the country as well at its exports.2.What is ECOtravel？ECOtravel is the one-stop information bureau for both business and the public which aims to raise awareness of sustainable travel，alternative fuels and the environment on Merseyside.The bureau is part of the European Commissions （EC） funded Clean Air Transport in Community Health （CATCH） demonstration project led by Merseytravel and partnered by Liverpool City Council，ARRIVA North-West，TTR，University of Liverpool，IMPACT，ORBIS consultants plus others.CATCH is part of the European Commissions （EC） Life-Environment Programme and supports the Sixth Environmental Action framework by promoting sustainable mobility in order to improve air quality.CATCH is being implemented in Liverpool （UK），Suceava （Romania） and Potenza （Italy）.The ECOtravel bureau is actively seeking participation in public，business and community groups to spread the information across the region.Your involvement will be very much
