That‘s a false dichotomy. It’s not just hydropower OR nuclear power. There are other possible power sources. Beside that, here are image searches for „uranium mining“ if you are unaware of its environmental effects.

- forrestthewoods 5y agoMy understanding is that if you dammed every river in the US worth damming for hydro it wouldn’t even cover a quarter of current energy needs. I tried a quick Google and couldn’t find anything to back that up though. So I could be wrong. I’m pretty sure hydro is a dead end. It can’t supply our needs today, much less in the future. And they’re environmental disasters both upstream and downstream.
