They love batteries.
Too bad that most of the public does not understand that the largest battery in America is Lake Roosevelt. Why? Because much of that water goes through a series of dams that generate massive amounts of electricity with no loss of water and no pollution.
They love salmon. I love salmon. Too bad that most of the public does not understand how successful the fish ladder systems and hatcheries have been in the Pacific Northwest.
The loss of salmon is coming from commercial fishing and much of that is China who does not obey rules. The US and China have throttled their commercial fishing and China has filled the void since China wiped out their own fish stocks in territorial waters.
It’s China - not the dams. The new fish ladders are amazingly effective where they take the strongest fish and pump them up and over the dam.
Dams increase animal and aquatic activity in addition to agricultural activity. We should have more dams - not less.
You forgot about all the sea lions waiting at the fish locks devouring the salmon.
