I live next to the Shasta Dam which is filled by the snows of an active volcano, Mt. Shasta in California, and flows into the Sacramento River on its way to the San Francisco delta area where it empties into the Pacific Ocean. I wonder what the people in Sacramento are going to do for power when they take that dam down. They already took down our local dam where I live in Red Bluff, downriver from Shasta about 30 miles. Slowly but surely the salmon are coming back and following right behind is a whole new flock of eagles and hawks, beautiful birds.

Well and not only that the panels are only 18% efficient the best of them are we found that out when we went to go install solar on our house. Our situation is perfectly posed for constant sunlight all day long from the time the sun comes up this time the sun goes down we would have sunlight pretty much three-quarters of the year and even on snowy days we would get patches of sunlight so we'd only have to have a small battery Bank we don't use a lot of electricity but we'd have it set up for a washer and dryer refrigerator Luckily the heat, stove and hot water heater are gas. There is also a supplemental wood heavy duty warming Style with power blower fireplace insert which uses minimal wood 2 heat the ceramic plates. What we found out was that the use of solar panels would leave us dependent upon the electric company for good we would not make enough energy off the sun no matter if we were 24/7 on the sun because of their inefficiency. We thought about doing the little wind turbines but because we get really serious wind and the trees you can't guarantee that something won't bust them up flying pinecones limbs needles squirrels I went ahead and just said the stick with what we've got. Are fireplace produces practically no emissions as we have a scrubber on it we use very little heating as where our house is smaller we always keep rooms that we don't use closed we have excellent insulation, a special custom built window installations for winter that are removed and replaced with Summer wait I enjoyed making those but it's just crazy some of the stuff people expect us to do when really all it is is a fraud.

@@valiantsfelinesmccarty6678 First of all, solar panels can reach a maximum efficiency of about 34% at the moment. Secondly, what a stupid argument. If you talk about this efficiency, it is the efficiency of the solar cells to convert sunlight directly into electricity, so it cannot even be compared to hydroelectricity or wind-energy. Both are (indirectly) ultimately powered by the sun, hydroelectricity through condensation and rain and wind energy through the movement of air which is also caused by the sun. If you would calculate how much sun energy is needed to provide you with enough water to get the same amount of energy it would be more than you need for solar panels. And finally, even the best plants only have a "solar energy to biomass conversion rate" of 2%, multiply that by 0.1 for every trophic level to find out that your beefburger has an energy efficiency of about 0.02%.

To remove the rubble and sediment they are going to have to FISH NET THE WATER FLOOR TO PROTECT THE SALMON. Install fish nets about a quarter mile to half a mile up the water channel so the salmon will not be able to swim down the channel until they are finished doing the work of removing the damn, rubble, and sediment. That's also gives the area of water they will be working in to restore it's pH factor suitable for the fish.

wow, the size of the salmons, unbelievable!

A hundred years ago we built these dams and they produced electricity, replacing a part of the fishing industry. Now with the demolishing of these dams we are replacing the electricity industry for the fishing industry. That of course means more fish will be able to feed more people. That part is good,but we also must find more ways to produce cheap electricity.

well the powerhouse that the dam helped supply with water was only able to produce enough electricity (22 Megawatts) for 12,000 homes.

So the dam was likely a drop in the bucket compared to where most Portland General Electric customers got their power from.
