Dams are a trade off. Sure, they hurt the salmon, but they help prevent flooding, they hold water to fight back drought, and they generate carbon free electricity.
You shut down a power producing damn, and you just increased air pollution and global warming because you have to burn oil or coal to replace that power. |
