dams

The reading and the lecture both are about dams. The author of the reading believes that dams are appropriate creation source of electricity nowadays, and he present three reasons to prove his assertion. This argument is challenged by the lecture. He is of the opinion that none of these claims is correct.

First, the author alleges that the dams don’t have any impact on the environment, even, have positive effect on it. it is mentioned that, lakes created behind the dams provide a good habitat for fish and create an entertainment area for local people. But the lecturer argues that dams form many remarkable problems during and after the construction. He says when a dam is build, the direction of water should be changed to allow workers to work. So it causes migration fish die. Furthermore, after the construction, velocity of water is decreased so that fish can not lay their eggs.

Secondly, the writer contends that the power produced by dams is almost the same amount as the coal plants generate while producing electricity in this way don’t release global gas into the air. The lecturer, however, rebuts this by asserting that, the lands surrounding dams permanently are flooded so that the plants within plain are destroyed. As a result, the rotten plants release the netrotin that is one of the global warming gas.

Finally, it is stated in the article that, dams don’t create financial problem for the community. The article notes, incomes is made by existence of dams per year is more than operating cost. So it also, has benefits for the local citizen. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits this by mentioning that building a dam isn’t possible without government aid. In addition, flood plain that was the land, local people live there should be relocated. Therefor, these expenses are taken as a tax from local people, so it is as burden on local shoulder.
