obtained, notably in minimizing the impact of floods and droughts. To give an example, the economic damage caused by the 1998 flood in the Yangtze River basin was practically equal to the total investment in the Three Gorges project. Other dimensions, such as electricity generation and river navigation, make the project even more cost-efficient. The revenue generated by electricity sales alone is expected to cover the investment by 2015. The production of hydroelectricity and improvements in river transport also contributed to significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The project’s role in regulating flow has improved water quality in the river during drought periods through dilution. However, the Three Gorges project has also caused new environmental problems: the inundation of arable lands and rare plants; weakened self-purification capacity in certain tributary sections of the river basin; and changed aquatic ecosystems in the reservoir area, as well as in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. These and other emerging problems have been acknowledged by the Chinese government, which has pledged to take improvement measures.
