| Résumé anglais |
The multi-prupose development of the Volga is designed to meet a wide range of objectives and is an exceptional project both in terms of scale and the variety and intensity of its impacts. Using the river to produce hydro-electric power has caused a major change to its seasonal regime and the disappearance of spawning grounds. The churning up of the river's water by the power stations' turbines at peak periods has led to intense erosion of the banks, while newly irrigated areas barely compensate for the large extent of fertile land flooded by the reservoirs. Overall, this represents a major ecological disaster. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
