The Salton Sea was created by accident by people in 1905. Why are environmentalists resisting the reclamation of the original ecology?

If only it were that easy ....

We have diverted nearly the entire Colorado River and dried up the Delta. Migratory birds now use the Salton Sea because there isn’t any Colorado Delta left these days. Dry up the sea and where will the birds go?

But what the heck, who cares about some birds, anyway. Let it dry up and all those pesticides & salt & stuff that’s been floating around will cause some pretty bad dust storms.

I am not sure what should be done, but I am not convinced it should take 9 billion to do it.
