The direct effect the Chinese tree Gorge Dams is\u00a0 drought, land sliding, and drying of\u00a0 lakes. This will be the best warning for the Ethiopian Dam rug Melse Zenawie from stopping to dam the Nile\u00a0 and the Omo rivers with consequences of drying Lake Tana and Turkana. Nile its source is the Lake Tana the only life giving lake\u00a0 to Egypt, while Omo is the life line for Lake Turkana in Kenya.<\/p>\n

Poyang Lake just months ago but now is a dry ocean of green grass because of China’s worst drought in decades the main culprit is the three Gorge dams, soon the same will be for Lake Tana in Ethiopia and Turkana in Kenya due the Death Dams of the Nile and Omo rivers constructed with the help the China.<\/p>\n
