It is reported that Mongolia plans to build a number of hydroelectric power plants on one of the tributaries of Lake Baikal - the Selenge River, as well as its tributaries
Our most distant ancestors lived along snaky rivers draining from volcanic mountains with at least two global bird migration flyways converging overhead.
Lake Baikal contains 20 percent of the world’s freshwater resources and affects the regional climate of North Asia and the Arctic Basin. The lake is home to 2,500 aquatic species and local communities in Mongolia and Russia revere the lake as the “Sacred Sea.”
