A discharge pipe is seen linking a soda lake with a chemical factory in a pasturing area of Ordos, North China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The lake, a former habitat for rare birds like egret, tadorna ferruginea, and recurvirostra avosetta, has been turned into a sewage pool since 2004 when several chemical factories were set up in nearby industrial park.
