Go ahead, knock the earth off its axis
Don’t they think of the migrating salmon? They’ll have to tear it down in 50 years to save the salmon.
The Three Gorges Dam lake has reportedly changed the weather cycle in surrounding areas.
One in Tibet will as well.
That’s real climate change................
no mention of fish or global warming.
A dam ignited rare Tibetan protests. They ended in beatings and arrests, BBC finds
One more thing to bomb in the near future.
Nah. That only happens in America.
If Chinese environmentalists stood up and said something about getting rid of dams in order to help salmon, they’d be arrested and shot.
China doesn’t have “earf people” standing in the way. their “earf people” become part of the earth. or maybe the roadways.
Earthquakes and mud slides. Sounds like fun.
I’m personally against this. City folks forcing their culture and problems on country folks.
Thousands of years of historical culture being destroyed so that the city folks can have shiny new toys.
As Qwapisking says in #9, “...their ‘earf people’ become part of the earth. or maybe the roadways.”
Or, more likely, become part of the dam itself.
Good for China. This will potentially replace dozens of coal fired power plants in the future. We all make jokes that they don’t have environmental groups that would file an injunction to stop this project. If the Sierra Club existed we would have never built the Hoover Dam or the grand Coulee Dam.
The other great news I heard today is that Argentina is going to build small nuclear reactors to power their country. These are long term good things for the planet. We should be remorseful that the USA can not accomplish these things here anymore. Instead we build these stupid wind turbines everywhere and cut down out forests and put up solar farms.
Oh, I missed that one. My bad.
Everyone who wants to live downstream of a Chinese built dam, raise your hands.
Here we go, wobbling through life, but what if we get a bad vibration, as opposed to the Good Vibrations of the Beachboys?
Beatings without arrests would be Black Lives Matter.
Yup. Not too many people ever mention the effects of punching a hole in the Three Gorges dam would be. š
We are in total agreement.
In WW2 the allies bombed German dams without a qualm of conscience and WW3 will be no different. The only difference will be that with advancing missile technology the Atlantic and Pacific oceans are no longer the insurmountable barrier against foreign aggression that they used to be. I guarantee you if America gets into an industrial conflict with China then the dams in both countries will be bombed and breached. If you live down stream of dams on the Columbia and the Colorado Rivers you must have a plan and a bugout bag.
Yup. The Brits had ābouncing Bettiesā bombs.
