Dam trouble



The Three Gorges Dam in China is under criticism for the environmental problems attributed to the Dam. This NYTimes article describes it a bit but you can also check out National Geographic News which often reports on the fish that have suffered from the Dam and it's activities. I wonder about the monkeys that I saw there last year that have lost much of their territory to the rise in water levels.

I am planning another trip for Wuhan for the end of December. Perhaps I will rephotograph the reservoir and dam. It's so depressing.
