The right choice obviously! At last humans all over the world are realising that nature knows best and are giving back. It’s a win-win!! ❤ Greetings from Scotland x

It was interesting seeing the West Bend story so prominently featured in this. I'm not too far from there in Madison. I wish the city I grew up in, Watertown, WI would consider removing their dams. But unfortunately, they just repaired one not that long ago at great expense. I would love to see the Rock River flowing freely through town, instead of the stinky mess it is now.

Dams certainly do seem to have far more detriment than benefit. I was working on the Prairie du Sac dam for a few years, and the most notable issue I saw was paddlefish and sturgeon crowding the tail-waters making effort to advance upstream.

Restoring a river is a no brainer...

I see the algorithm is working. 9 year old video suddenly has comments and the oldest is 4 months. LOL Actually another channel had the same video I watched about a year ago.

Seems it’s going full circle now for fish, other wildlife and nature. I know near where I live, they’ve removed the Elwah dam in the Elwah river after more than 100 years and the area is gradually restoring itself. Salmon steelhead and others now are able to spawn upstream. Sad though how Seattle city light is still holding on to their aging dams that still have no fish ladders even though that’s the standard these days. They make a lot of money on power to city light customers. Shame on you Seattle city light!!!

Interesting series of videos. What year was this initial video?

Watch the credit roll …

America needs to learn from Saudi Arabia and damn ephemeral rivers and streams running through desert areas where water is needed. Coupled with wind and solar power makes for a steadier power supply whereas as before they weren't considered worthy of power output. Places where wildlife is improved instead of ruined by dams.

Entirely different environments. Possibly in the arid Southwest, but why dam where no one lives?

Wait until beavers show up …

Take the dam thing down....
