17 dams recently built on the Mekong River in Southeast Asia are threatening fisheries, destroying a vast ecosystem, and starving millions. And 11 more dams are currently in the planning process. The dams already in place are blocking fish from travel

It would be wise to remove these dams NOW, thx Simone. Anything that is not based in a positive light will no longer be sustained on Earth. The clock has almost expired on these types of non-sensical, anti-human policies. They will no longer be tolerated, period. Thx Simone.
