IRAN-ENVIRONMENT-POLITICS-ORUMIYEH
(FILES)--A file picture dated July 15, 2011 shows Iranian women walking on the dried salt field of Lake Orumiyeh near the city of Orumiyeh some 600 kilometers northwest of the capital Tehran. One of the largest salt lakes in the world and classified as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, Lake Orumiyeh has lost more than half of its surface over the last two decades due to drought and the damming of rivers feeding it. The lake could be dried out in the next two to four years and lead to apocalyptic consequences if no urgent action is taken, according to local officials and environmental experts.
