1. This huge dam will generate 300,000,000,000,000 Wh.

2. Meanwhile fighting aridification.

3. They need to stop with their water and irrigation fetish. I swear it’s a holdover from the Mao era when they thought that harnessing water and building dams was the peak of civilization irrespective of how much ecological devastation or displacement it caused. Mid. So mid.

4. They need to stop doing this. They are literally slowing the rotation of the Earth by a second the last huge dam scientist proved that the earth slowed by one full second because the displacement of that much water slowed the Earth down so this one will do the same every second the sun hits the Earth you got more global warming.

5. They need to otherwise they are screwed. They can’t rely on petroleum generating power plants. They have lots of water 💦 that can take advantage of

6. … so more floods and carnage downstream.
   Which government official bootlicker teamed up with this idea?

   The 3 gorges dam already has cracks due to substandards.

8. As someone who has been inside their last wonder-dam, these numbers are completely made up.

   The previous record holder, 3 Gorges dam never actually produced its nameplate power either, but it did have a lot of non-functional turbines and cracking/leaking concrete.
