This May 31, 2009 photo shows horses walking in the shallows of the Aral Sea some 100 kilometers from Aralsk, Kazakhstan. The Aral, the world's fourth-largest freshwater sea, once covered an area the size of Ireland. But then it became part of the Soviet Union. With their passion for planned economics and giant, nature-reversing projects, the communists diverted the rivers that fed the landlocked sea and used them to irrigate vast cotton fields. The result: The Aral shrank by 90 percent to a string of isolated stretches of water.

A Region in Crisis Garbatulla was once a luscious land of green pastures bursting with grazing cattle. Now, as the worst drought in 60 years grips the Horn of Africa, the stunning scenery of the Kenyan region, one of the worst affected areas, has been replaced with dry, arid land. Kenya is experiencing its worst drought in more than 60 years, with 3.5 million people in urgent need of assistance. Garbatulla is one of the most affected areas of the drought. The once luscious land is now barren and strewn with the carcasses of dead cattle, which are the only means of food and income for thousands of families. Many communities have lost up to 90% of their herd and the next harvest is not expected until February or March 2012. One in five children in the region is at risk of malnutrition.
