Environmental Consequences
- A large amount of vegetation is growing on the dam when it is built it can decay in the lake causing it to build up and release of methane.
- Another thing is, that the dam does not produce a substantial amount of solid waste.
- This is influence tectonic activities or movement of underground rock formation plates.
FUN FACT!
Fish Ladders
Seeing as fish can't migrate due to the dams, people have created a little something called the fish ladder. Basically all these fish ladders do is give the fish another path to get them were they want to be. The fish leap through through rushing waters, rest in a pool and keep doing that till they get past the dam.
