Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the information about the Aral Sea?

The diversion of rivers in the 1960s exclusively led to the 2°C regional climate change.

The geological uplift is a result of the water's weight loss on the Earth's surface.

The health impacts such as increased respiratory diseases are directly linked to toxic dust storms from the Aralkum Desert.

The Aral Sea's reduction enhanced the local fish industry diversity.

Statement 1 is false. While river diversion contributed to climate changes, they are not the sole factor.

Statement 2 is true. The removal of water reduced weight, causing geological uplift.

Statement 3 is true. The health impacts, including increased respiratory diseases, are directly linked to toxic dust storms.

Statement 4 is false. The reduction of the Aral Sea led to a collapse of the fish industry, not enhancement.
