THE UNPREDICTABLE RIVERS & 3 GORGES DAM IN CHINA REPORT

THE UNPREDICTABLE RIVERS & 3 GORGES DAM IN CHINA REPORT
In China, people sometimes refer to the Yellow River as the River of Sorrow or the Scourge of the Sons of Han. The river is Asia's second-longest and is infamous for its unpredictable and oftentimes devastating floods. However, scholars also believe that it was the birthplace of Chinese civilization, proving the resources that culture needed to flourish.
Now, evidence has emerged that for nearly as long as humans have been taking advantage of the Yellow River's resources, they have also been altering its natural course. Beginning around 3,000 years ago, researchers found, people living along the Yellow River started building levees and other flood mitigation systems. As populations increased, alterations to the river became more and more extreme.

I have coffee every morning with you. Last night I was on YouTube seeing if there was anything I didn't already see and I saw someone had reported that the 3 gorges had broken. I turned to your channel to see if it might be true and you had nothing to say at 2 AM. I did remember what you said about people just making things up. Thank you for being there.

Just a stray point of curiosity... Do Cambodia and/or China play this silly game of changing clock settings twice a year to trick themselves into believing they'll have longer daylight to enjoy?
