Farmer in Inner Mongolia
Tang Bai had a well dug on his land in the early 1980s. The 8 meters deep well was originally full of water, however, the water level has gradually fallen since Shenhua started extracting water in 2006 and has now completely dried out. For ten years, the Chinese state-run organisation Shenhua Group, has been exploiting water resources at a shocking scale from the Ordos grasslands to use in its coal-to-liquid project (a process for producing liquid fuel from coal) and illegally dumping toxic industrial waste water. Shenhua's operations have sparked social unrest and caused severe ecological damage including desertification, impacting farmers and herders who are facing reduced water supplies in what was once an abundant farming area. Haolebaoji, Ordos, Inner Mongolia.
