          Dams. It’s a four letter word that contains a lot of energy. Water dams create electricity by holding water in reservoir than gravity pulls it down then the electricity making begins. Now if you really think about it we should have dams all over the world and have a bunch of them because water is all over earth. It sadly doesn’t work that way. To much money and most dams need to be in a river. But overall dams can do good to society because it’s producing energy using natural and renewable resources. There are some small cons such as sediment build up in the water and flooding. There’s always risk that and problems that come with rewards. https://blog.arcadia.com/pros-cons-dams/
