The problem really is China plugging the largest water basin in the world with this dam.....China has more large dams than any other country in the world, more than 87,000!....A week or so ago they blew up a large dam with explosives in order to release the build up of water.

I’ve been watching this for the last few weeks, and also when they were building the 3 Gorges Dam around 2012 and all the controversies about it. The chat gets interesting at night when US engineers etc. offer opinions on what’s happening there. Althoug it would be daylight there.

Here’s live feed and it’s overflow is currently operating at max.

“China has more large dams than any other country in the world, more than 87,000!”

Part of Mao’s legacy, with “The Great Leap Forward.” They went on a mad dam building spree - many with primitive engineering and techniques, simply large earthen berms.

Some of those have already failed this season, adding to the problem.
