Why is the South-to-North Water Transfer Project not widely reported?

Because the project has the following disputes:

The cost is huge, involving a large number of immigrants, and the water regulation is too small to bring economic benefits into play, while the water regulation is too large. In the dry season, the water from the Yangtze River may be insufficient, which will affect the navigation of the Yangtze River channel and deepen the salt tide in the Yangtze River estuary, which will more easily lead to the natural environment and ecological crisis in the Yangtze River basin. The simultaneous action of the Three Gorges Project and the South-to-North Water Transfer Project may have an immeasurable impact on the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, especially in the dry season and dry season. The relocation of nearly 330,000 people in Henan Province, the Middle Route Project of South-to-North Water Transfer, has brought turmoil to the lives of immigrants. Some immigrants can only buy a small piece of cultivated land after buying the housing provided by the government because of insufficient compensation; The cost of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project is already higher than that of the existing seawater desalination. 20 1 1 In the first half of the year, the three provinces of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi in the lower reaches of the Three Gorges suffered an unprecedented drought. In Hubei Province alone, 1300 reservoirs were below the dead water level. The water levels of Poyang Lake, Dongting Lake and Hongze Lake are seriously low, and the largest freshwater lake in China has only one tenth of the water area. This series of events has aroused widespread doubts about the Three Gorges Dam from all walks of life.
