We can't survive there, they only give us 1.4 Chinese acres (mu) of land, how much can we earn from that? The land there is barren and the crops cannot grow well.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThere has been little talk of compensation for the farmers living here, Zhang only knows that his family will be allocated a small plot of land some 40 kilometres away, which he says is not fertile. \u003cbr/\u003eAbout 200 villagers in Zhangyigang are planning to take their case to court, one even painted a sign of protest on his house, calling migrants the nation's 'victims'.\u003cbr/\u003eThe shoddy houses that the government provided during the first relocation attempt in the 1960s bring back bad memories, and groups of villagers are voicing their protest against the government's recent high handed methods.\u003cbr/\u003eResident Zhang Jizhu says they will be left with no choice but to go. \u003cbr/\u003eIn Donggou village, another community by the reservoir, residents have been instructed to move but haven't been told when or how.\u003cbr/\u003eMany of their mud walled homes are on the verge of collapse but villagers like Ge Jinhua are hesitant to repair them.\u003cbr/\u003eZhang Jiyao, the Minister in charge of the project says that while the need for water is pressing, the completion of the central route of the project is being delayed by 4 years to 2014 to ensure the smooth resettlement of villagers.\u003cbr/\u003eThe deadline for the whole project is 2050.\u003cbr/\u003eZhang Jiyao says this will not solve the water shortage problem, only ease it. \u003cbr/\u003eWhile the project aims to supply water to Beijing and 20 other fast-growing cities in the North, the rural areas of the arid north will gain little from the project.\u003cbr/\u003eCritics say that large swaths of parched countryside in drought prone provinces like Hebei will remain vastly the same.\u003cbr/\u003eDai Qing, an environmental activist says that the project will only damage the fragile ecosystem in the area, and generate more waste.\u003cbr/\u003eCities she believes need to learn to conserve more, and water resources have to be distributed more evenly across China.\u003cbr/\u003eZhang Jiqing knows that his chances of winning any court case are slim, and his days in his village are numbered.\u003cbr/\u003eHe's already moved once as a boy, his old house is now submerged by the reservoir. 40 years later, he has to uproot himself and his family all over again.\u003cbr/\u003e\"This is what the country needs, so I must move. But I really do miss my previous home, it was my home, how can I not miss it?\" says Zhang.\u003cbr/\u003eThe most expensive and technically difficult leg of the canal project has been postponed for more study after scientists questioned its feasibility. \u003cbr/\u003eAnother leg has been delayed for four years to smooth the resettlement process.\u003cbr/\u003eExperts and environmentalists say it's time China took a different approach to its growth-related challenges, one based on conservation rather than engineering.\u003cbr/\u003eBeijing, a city of some 17 million, has around 33 percent of China's population.\u003cbr/\u003eIt generates the same percentage of gross domestic product, but only has 7.7 percent of the nation's water. \u003cbr/\u003eWater demand is expected to increase by 16 percent by 2030, according to the World Bank, under current water prices. \u003cbr/\u003eThe project is estimated at $62 billion, more expensive than the Three Gorges Dam. \u003cbr/\u003eIt would transfer 12 trillion gallons a year from the Yangtze and its tributaries to wheat farms and\u003cbr/\u003efast-growing northern cities.\u003cbr/\u003eTwo main routes will run around 800 miles up the centre and east of the country, while a plan for a western route involves damming rivers and boring through mountainous rock on the Tibetan plateau to give water from the upper reaches of the Yangtze into the Yellow River. \u003cbr/\u003eThe eastern route, to be completed in 2013, follows the remains of the Grand Canal, completed some 1,400 years ago, and will use pumping stations to raise the water 130 feet before it descends into the booming coastal city of Tianjin and Shandong province.\u003cbr/\u003eThe central route, where work began in 2002, will take water from the Danjiangkou Reservoir across three provinces to supply about a quarter of Beijing's water and 20 other cities.\u003cbr/\u003eThe western route has been postponed pending further study. As currently proposed, it would dam three rivers high in the Tibetan plateau and tunnel more than 60 miles through mountain rock. \u003cbr/\u003eIn all,nearly 400,000 people will have to move.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Three Gorges Dam, the world's largest hydroelectric project, forced more than 1.4 million people to move, their villages flooded by a 410-mile long reservoir that the dam created on the middle Yangtze.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read
