Demand for power is growing fast, but hydro plants, the oldest source of clean energy, are struggling because of droughts, floods and other extreme weather linked to climate change.
The world doesn’t need more energy.
Kill off crypto mining and LLM AI bullshit and we’d have plenty of energy.
The meat industry is bigger than both, so let’s kill that too.
The belatedly-realized fact that dams sometimes screw up downstream habitat doesn’t help either.
Afaik, the big Chinese dam was also slowing down the rotation of earth, due to the displaced amount of water. So the Chinese then decided they needed an even bigger one…
Do you have any reason to believe there are adverse effects from Earth’s slowing rotation due to Three Gorges Dam?
I’m just not comfortable with humans messing around with the planet by that much… It’s not working great with everything else, is it?
