 Hydro destroys the most valuable wildlife habitat, releases greenhouse gasses, is highly susceptible to terrorism and isn’t resilient to climate change. 

Establishing distributed energy production, like solar rooftops, has none of those drawbacks.

Yet Canada calls hydro “green” for our national GHG calculations…ignoring the fugitive methane releases and other glaring negatives…just like Petro.
