The late Soviet Union was dealing with those sort of problems years ago.
There was, and is, a problem with the Caspian Sea, and one solution
was to rurn some of Siberia's North-flowing rivers to flow south and
into The Caspian. The amount of power to remove that amount of earth was
to be supplied by atomic bombs. What wcould go wrong?.. Luckily, the 
project was scapped. (I believe there is a proposal to bring water
from the Red Sea at Aquaba to replenish the Dead  Sea.)
