Facts about palm islands?

Palm Facts -The creation and development of The Palm is an unparalleled feat of design and engineering. -The Palm is destined to be like no other place on earth Rocks weighing a total of 7 million metre cubed (per island) are being brought in from sixteen different quarries throughout the United Arab Emirates -The Palm comprises approximately 100 million cubic metres of sand and rock -If all the fill materials used to build one Palm island were placed end to end, a wall two meters high and half a metre thick could circle the world three times -Dredges play a prominent role in building The Palm. Sand is first dropped into place and piled at a specific angle of repose, ensuring it will hold its place -After the initial dumping of sand, a dredger brings the sand level to the surface with a process called "rainbowing", which literally sprays the sand into proper position -The Crescent surrounds the island and acts as a breakwater able to withstand a 4m wave. It is built from the bottom up, beginning with the sand, geo textile fibre, small rocks, and then medium sized rocks, once above water -Expert Divers examine rock placement underwater to ensure correct positioning. Divers are also used to review placement of geo textile -Over 100 studies from transportation, marina design and water supply to technology and civil works have been completed to assess and ensure The Palm's feasibility -Due to its immense scale and unique shape, The Palm, Jumeirah is visible from space with the naked eye -Over 12,000 Palm trees will be grown on a nursery in Jumeirah, Dubai, which the Island will require -From crabs to shell fish, reefs, coral and rocks, the Arabian Gulf is full of marine life. The Palm will help stimulate its development by adding nutrient rich materials
