Sobre este artículo
Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2002. Paperback octavo, very good condition, figures, minor edgewear, remainder mark. 274 pp. Erika Weinthal examines how the Central Asian nations of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan have tackled the Aral Sea Basin crisis since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Under Soviet rule, so much water was diverted from the rivers for agricultural purposes that salinity levels rapidly rose and the sea shrank. There was an upsurge in dust storms containing toxic salt residue, and a new desert began to replace the sea. At the same time, agricultural runoff rendered the drinking water unfit for human consumption. This book explains how the newly states and third parties cooperated to try to fix this hard problem.
