Dear Jane,
The Mekong River is found in the southeastern part of Asia. I am visiting this river in order to observe the progress of the depletion or the growth of this river over time, and the environment around it. Ranging from the South China Sea to the Plateau of Tibet, it is 313,000 miles long. This river is used for food, water, transportation, and resources for their crops. The river is wide and can flow slowly in some areas of the river. Many different tributaries flow into this river making it even larger.Even though the water isn't the cleanest there are a variety of life, such as fish. There are over 700 species of fish located in the water. There are many fresh water fish providing a variety of different food selections for the surrounding towns and traveling animals.
