ss Aral sea
Aral Sea
The Aral Sea is located in Kazakhstan and was one of the four largest lakes in the world and had an area of 68,000 km. Since the 1960s there has been a huge drop in the amount of water that it contains. The sea declined to 10% of it’s original sized in 2007. The canals and deltas have nearly been destroyed by the salinity of the water (the amount of salt in the water).
The plains left from the dried sea are covered with toxic chemicals which are picked up by the wind and dropped in the surrounding areas. This has resulted in health problems such as lung cancer, digestive disorders, anaemia, and infectious diseases. The large amounts of salt left on the land is destroying crops and fields which is making it hard for the people in the surrounding areas to get food.
This is the result in the draining of the Aral Sea and using the water for irrigation.

Q:What makes you Canadian? How is your "Canadian-ness" shown in your daily life? If you are not Canadian, think of the people you see around you everyday and apply these questions to them. Write at least 150 words in your blog explaining how you or the people around you express Canadian-ness. A one sentence answer will not do it here. You may refer to any information on the class blog to support what you have to say.
