Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A lot of legends have been created around the Aral Sea. Some of them were born during the Soviet time but there are already new ones that have arrived recently. Those legends came to be the barriers to solving the problem. There are also barriers created by the status quo mentality of local authorities. But mutual understanding is the biggest problem among countries sharing water resources. It is suggested to create an Ecological Economics Unit of the Biosphere (EEUB) managed by an executive body not affiliated to any country. Despite the borders the EEUB should unite the economics of neighborhood countries to protect the nature.
