The construction of the Three Gorges Dam faced several significant problems, including massive displacement of local populations, with over a million residents relocated due to flooding of their homes and farmland. Environmental concerns also arose, such as the loss of biodiversity, changes in local ecosystems, and increased sedimentation in the reservoir. Additionally, geological issues like landslides and seismic risks posed threats to the dam's stability and safety. Lastly, the project faced criticism over its economic viability and the potential for exacerbating regional inequalities.
