Not long ago, Chinese President Xi Jinping went to the dam area of the Three Gorges and along the Yangtze River to inspect the rehabilitation of the ecological environment of the Yangtze River. President Xi said that "the ecological restoration of the Yangtze River should be the priority" and stressed that "destructive development should not be conducted". The rare speech made by the highest decision-making level in China on the Three Gorges Project has caused the long-controversial Three Gorges Project become once again the focus of public opinion. For more than 60 years, China has built more than 50,000 dams on the mainstream and tributaries of the Yangtze River, which has fundamentally changed the natural river ecosystem. The construction of the Three Gorges Dam actually killed the potential of the future development of the Yangtze River's shipping.
