It took just 40 years for the Aral Sea to dry up. Fishing ports suddenly found themselves in a desert. But in one small part of the sea, water is returning. Latest satellite pictures reveal that 90% of the Aral Sea has dried up, forming a new desert between Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan in Central Asia. It’s a man-made environmental disaster. As part of the BBC’s Richer World Season, Rustam Qobil visits the Aral Sea, a toxic desert sea bed, and talks to people who have lost their sea, health and loved ones.

    Fresh water for the Aral sea

    https://jtvideos.blogspot.com/2022/07/fresh-water-for-aral-sea.html

    An ambitious restoration project is bringing back fish—and fishermen—to the North Aral Sea in Kazakhstan, National Geographic reports. The Aral Sea was once one of the world's largest freshwater lakes, supplying tens of thousands of tons of fish every year.

    The aral sea, also is water due to Stalin's cotton plantations.. But we are not that far away from the open ocean with only 100 metre drop to the open sea. So we are back to my idea of vacuum desalination.

    Even now, the Aral Sea-Caspian Sea-Black Sea tentative name: I would like to build the Eurasia Canal so that the Aral Sea can be saved and Uzbekistan can go out to sea.

    A seawater connection canal with a width of 1.2km that connects the sea to all places below 0m on the earth will solve global warming and allow landlocked countries to advance into the ocean.

Meghan apologises to court for misleading statement in privacy case – BBC News

Published

on



Meghan, Duchess of Sussex has apologised to a court for forgetting about biography briefing notes she gave to an aide, in her privacy case against the Mail on Sunday’s publishers.

The Appeal Court heard she had asked an aide to pass on information to the authors of a biography – despite having earlier said she “did not contribute” to the work.

Meghan said she had forgotten the events and had not intended to mislead.

Associated Newspapers is trying to overturn a ruling after it published a letter from the duchess to her father.

Meghan, 40, won her privacy case against the publisher of the Mail on Sunday earlier this year, when the High Court found its publication of the letter was unlawful.

Iran-US peace talks fail to reach deal as Washington issues ‘final offer’ | BBC News

Published

on



Vice-President JD Vance has said that the US and Iran failed to reach an agreement following lengthy peace talks in Pakistan.

The delegations met in Islamabad during a temporary ceasefire.

Vance said the US “could not get to a situation where the Iranians were willing to accept our terms”. Halting Iran’s nuclear capabilities had been a “core goal” that wasn’t reached.

Iran’s foreign ministry says the talks were “intensive”, and called on Washington to refrain from “excessive demands and unlawful requests”.
