The Aral Sea, once one of the world's largest lakes, is noted for being part of one of the largest irrigation systems in Central Asia. The extensive diversion of rivers for agricultural purposes, particularly for cotton farming, has led to significant shrinkage of the sea. This environmental disaster has resulted in severe ecological and economic consequences for the surrounding regions. The situation highlights the challenges of water management and sustainability in arid environments.
