Benefits of Dams
Tier 2
I think that the advancing technology of dams is a good thing. Building dams has many more positive affects than negative. Dams prevent high flood risk rivers from flooding as often or even at all. Also, the water that builds up behind the dam serves as many purposes. They create more jobs for people and the water can be used for things such as a campground lake and boat launch facilities. Dams don’t only create useful reservoirs, but they also form great irrigation land which give farmers more jobs. A great source of electricity is another positive you get from dams. Hydro electricity generated in dams is great way of energy for places near by to the dam, generating about 103,800 megawatts of energy. I think all these things listed above are the most important things that support my point of view. The fact that many things show the 3 Gorges dam is also hurting China in some ways. I think it is better that they have it because it slows down the flooding rate by a ton and is used for a big amount of renewable energy.
