america is not a big jungle like brazil

Most hydro plants are far from the jungle

>>70913362
It's literally the most efficient energy source there is. The top 5 power plants in the world are hydro plants, and they produce the cheapest energy also clean.

What did they mean by this?

It's clean but it usually has a strong enviromental impact

>>70914092
Strong fear to depend of other countries toward our energie supplies during cold war made us invest a lot in nuclear power.

well, they ARE renowned for being avid coal-burners

>>70914866
All of these things are unironically true. I don't know why you're greentexting.

>>70914443
I wish we could have mostly nuclear power too.

>>70913250
America fuck yeah

>using that weak ass hydro power cuz muh global warming
HAHAHAHAHA faggot

American educational system hard at work.

>>70913250
You realize hydroelectric is almost as bad as coal for the surrounding environment right?

>>70915149
Ummmm, kill yourself unamerican faggot

>>70914995
Because coal is inferior to nuclear power.

>>70913373
...muh HDI

>>70915319
Agreed, but the environmental lobby has a huge fear mongering campaign around Nuclear power.

>>70914995
>>Nuclear power is cleaner than coal
>All of these things are unironically true.

Except that nuclear wastes aer going to be a burden for the next generations.
Pretending nuclear is cleaner using only a 50 years time frame is literally a lie.

>>70915386
Even though that coal power causes local smog, which then causes breathing problems for the people, while nuclear power plant emissions is clean, unless the plant has gone through a meltdown.

>>70915503
Yes and it is far from being cheap too.

Hydroelectric is god for production but you need to destroy so much to put it place.
I don't know which is the best among all electrical production but one thing i know is large solar panel plant is fucking eco bullshit.

>>70913250
>like the rest of the world

You mean like Africa?

>>70915700
Nah, Africa uses coal like you

>hurr durr hydro is bad
>muh environment
>muh tree
Why you Wood elf don't just hump the fucking like a little faggot you are?

>>70915817
we use nuclear power

you know, atomic magic and stuff
not just pouring a water on a propeller and going all wheeeeeeeeeeee it turns around look at it guys hehehe

>not using helium 3 which is clean, safe, more efficient than nuclear and abundant on the moon

What the hell, world.

>>70915859
Top kek, you fucker are literally trying to mock Brazilians with fucking nuclear power? This has to be a joke..

>>70915875
how do you use helium-3 to generate electricity?

Top kek, nuclear power is just using enriched uranium instead of coal to move a steam engine. (XIX century technology)

Our government stopped building more nuclear plants because they were so cost inneficient compared to hydro.

>>70915950
Great minds think alike

IT'S THE CURRENT YEAR AND YOU'RE STILL DOING THAT THING THAT YOU'VE BEEN DOING SINCE THE BEGGINING OF TIME??!?!?

>>70916106
Well if we wanna be honest there's no one-size-fits-all solution for power generation and it really depends on location.

>>70916012
The missing neutron on helium 3 creates a reaction that generates heat.

Rest of the world, are you even trying?

Coal has a strong environmental impact.
