Kipish [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

SHANGHAI—For over three decades the Chinese government dismissed warnings from scientists and environmentalists that its Three Gorges Dam—the world's largest—had the potential of becoming one of China's biggest environmental nightmares. But last fall, denial suddenly gave way to reluctant acceptance that the naysayers were right. Chinese officials staged a sudden about-face, acknowledging for the first time that the massive hydroelectric dam, sandwiched between breathtaking cliffs on the Yangtze River in central China, may be triggering landslides, altering entire ecosystems and causing other serious environmental problems—and, by extension, endangering the millions who live in its shadow.

<h3>What exactly is Pork Barrel legislation?</h3>

The term "pork barrel" refers to the authorization of government funds for localized projects that are obtained mainly or mostly to bring money to a representative's district. Pork barrel politics often refers to expenditures designed to benefit a politician's constituency in exchange for political support, either in the form of campaign payments or votes. Pork barrels were initially used to store pork. By the 1870s, allusions to "pork" were widespread in Congress, and the phrase was popularized further by a 1919 article in the National Municipal Review by Chester Collins Maxey, which reported on some legislative actions known to members of Congress as "pork barrel bills."
