Certain lakes aren’t going to dry up within human timescales. And disaster risk is present in a lot of places. Just something you take into account when you build it.

> Certain lakes aren’t going to dry up within human timescales.

Which ones? The North American Great Lakes, maybe? Anything else?

The Aral Sea was the third largest lake in the world. Within the human time scale of the last six decades, it's lost 90% of its area.

Aral sea was milked for agriculture. Not all lakes are like that.
