The Aral Sea was a lake located between Kazakhstan in the north and Uzbekistan in the south. It was once one of the four largest lakes in the world, but due to irrigation projects in the 1960s and 1970s, the inflow of water was greatly reduced and the lake began to shrink. By the late 1990s, the lake had split into several smaller lakes and its overall size had decreased dramatically. As a result of the shrinking of the Aral Sea, the local climate became more arid, fishing communities were destroyed, and public health problems emerged due to increased salinity and dust storms. Efforts have been made in recent years to restore the lake, but its size remains much smaller than it was in the past.
