Drought, an abandoned boat lies on the dried up lake bed, Bolivia. 乾旱, 棄舟躺在乾涸的湖床, 玻利維亞

In this January 12, 2016 photo, an abandoned boat lies on the dried up lake bed of Lake Poopo, on the outskirts of Untavi, Bolivia. Drought caused by the recurrent El Nino meteorological phenomenon is considered the main driver of the lake's demise. Along with glacial melting, authorities say another factor is the diversion of water from Poopo's tributaries, mostly for mining but also for agriculture. (Photo by Juan Karita/AP Photo)

Environmentalists and local activists say the government mismanaged the lake's fragile water resources and ignored rampant pollution from mining, Bolivia's second export earner after natural gas.
