The disastrous effects of a large scale water transfer project were demonstrated in the Aral Sea. The Aral Sea was once the fourth-largest lake in the world, but due to a Soviet-era irrigation project that diverted water from the rivers feeding the lake, it has shrunk significantly, causing devastating ecological and economic consequences, such as fishing industry collapse and increased health problems for the people living in the surrounding areas.
