De Dam
Ruben visits the Three Gorges Dam, China's pride and joy when it comes to man-made-structures. The dam is considered a great victory on nature. But nature and culture have suffered for its creation as 90 villages and 13 cities have had to be evacuated and left under the water's surface. Ruben's meeting with a river-guide is suspiciously cancelled, but a local fisherman is willing to help him find a finless porpoise, but not so willing to talk about the negative ecological consequences of the dam. The crew of a cruise ship sailing the Yangtze dreams of times when they were still able to fish for a living on a, then, smaller rapid.
