Asia;s hunger for sand takes a toll on endangered species

http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/03/asias-hunger-sand-takes-toll-endangered-species?utm_campaign=news_weekly_2018-03-02&et_rid=213094054&et_cid=1884186


Singapore is attempting to reduce its reliance on imported sand for its land reclamation projects. Much of the fill for a new container port in Tuas, on the island's west coast, is from domestic dredging and excavation.
