I consider how hydropower might be the way the world should go. It's relatively inexpensive. It doesn't cause any air pollution.
But, there's a flip side: It impacts aquatic life. Impacts underground seismic plates. And, in times of drought, it is not reliable.
I consider the hydro generators we do have. Have they killed off any species? I don't believe so. Have they fell short of providing the electricity we need in times of drought? Exhibit A is California.
My judgement at the moment is that we need these hydro power plants. We need more of them. . . .
But, I'm not sure.
