They really avoided all but the briefest mention of the most important thing for any large project like this: the potential ecological effects, not to mention geopolitical since said ecological effects will be across the border in India.
- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> not to mention geopolitical since said ecological effects will be across the border in India China is taking full advantage of India's military dependence on Russia. (India cannot afford, let alone win, a conflict with China right now.)
- gmuslera 2y agoThere are ecological effects for not doing it too, and in global scale this time. Hydroelectric energy is pretty clean, specially compared with burning oil/coal/gas to make an equivalent amount of energy. At least if the priority is to keep growing and not some massive worldwide degrowth agreement.
