Wait, the U.S. government did something involving indigenous people that isn't explicitly designed to fuck them over?
On the other hand, it's almost in time for Trump to get back into office and start the drilling at Bear's Ears he was desperate for last time.
so instead of removing the dams, we're strengthening clean energy(dams)?
this is good? am i stupid or something?
This article has more specific information:
But yeah sounds like investing in new clean energy for multiple reasons, eventual removal of the dams is one of them
I might be wrong here but to me it reads like they're investing in projects that will eventually enable the removal of the dams.
I don't know much about the issue, but playing devils advocate, it may be the case that removing the dam would hurt too many people in the short or intermediate term.
The again, if it just hurts business like data center owners, then it's a hollow victory.
Can't really remove the dams until we have something to fill the void.
Y'know you could probably make a pretty decent redraw of the US by putting major watersheds together and then naming each after the significant indigenous food sources of those regions, PNW being Salmonlands, California being Foragelands, the heartland being Bisonlands, Turkeylands in the Northeast, so on and so forth.
