These days, everybody seems to be worried about the environment. We’re all trying to find some amazing form of clean energy that has a very small affect on the local and worldly environment. The thing is, we have already found one. This is a simple and easy way to produce electricity without a big carbon footprint. Hydropower is produced at a dam, where water is sent through a turbine to spin a generator to produce electricity. Hydroelectricity is a clean and renewable resource that can be produced on almost any river in the world.
