The ecological tragedy of the shrinking Aral Sea

He was one of the first to call it unrealistic in the context of the formation of new Central Asian states and the lack of funds for the implementation of illusory projects of “transferring Siberian rivers” with the aim of reviving the Aral Sea and switching to effective measures to assist the population of the Aral Sea region and reduce the irrational use of water.
