In my opinion, I think the dam was a good idea, I have this reasoning as it has really affected China as it will reduce the air pollution caused by greenhouse gases, the dam can power 1/3 of the homes in China and could potentially persuade more people to use cleaner sources of energy. The river has also increased the size of the river leading to an increase in imports, the dam can also lift cargo crates making a new trade route, this is great as China has a huge needs a lot of trading as it is one of the leading economic countries at the moment. Before everyone hates the dam we also have to mention that the dam only affects locals nearby with landslides but affects the whole of China positively with clean electricity. even though there are many negatives, I think that the positives definitely outway the negatives, especially for China.
