Is the disadvantage of the Three Gorges Dam an environmental problem? Why?

In the long run, it may always do more harm than good, not only destroying the ecological environment of the Yangtze River, the mother river of the Chinese nation, but also drowning the essence of the Yangtze River and the historical and cultural relics that have accompanied it for tens of thousands of years, and at the same time being forced to change the living habits of people along the Yangtze River for generations.

It has been proved that there are a large number of cultural relics buried in the Three Gorges area, many of which are extremely precious and have not been discovered so far. However, it is impossible to have enough time to dig up these precious cultural relics from the start of the Three Gorges Project to the impoundment. According to reports, only one tenth of all cultural relics have been really excavated, which means that 90% of precious cultural relics are buried at the bottom of the river. This is a very sad thing. There are also some places of interest along the Three Gorges, such as Zhangfei Temple, which have to be submerged in the river. This is a great damage to the history and culture of China.

In terms of ecology, the construction of the Three Gorges Project will have an impact on the local large-scale ecology, such as the destruction of local vegetation and climate change, which will have a great impact on all kinds of animals and plants. According to related reports, due to the construction of the Three Gorges Project, the climate nearby is abnormal, but it is still very cold when it is warm. There are also a lot of landslides in some places, which are estimated to be related to the Three Gorges Project. Some organisms, such as fish, have changed their living environment because of water storage and other reasons, which has an impact on reproduction.

And mass migration. People who once lived in the Three Gorges area had to give up the place where they lived for generations and go to a new environment. The social problems brought by immigration, such as how and where immigrants are resettled, can not be ignored.

Disadvantages are destroying cultural relics, affecting the ecological environment and resettlement.
