Building dams can disrupts the flow of water which has a lot of side effects. such as: Salomons can't go back up a river, the habitat around the dam can be destroyed.

Councillors were updated on long-term plans to deal with Ottawa's solid waste, as the Trail Road landfill approaches capacity. In 2023 Ottawa residents paid on average to get $185 each year for waste services. but even if councillors opt against the technologies, staff say the rates will likely double within the decade.
city staff have provided an estimate to how much cost for a garbage collection per household?! and in about the next 30 years based on 3 scenarios "anaerobic digestion (orange), waste-to-energy incineration and anaerobic digestion (blue) or mixed waste procession and anaerobic digestion (green).
Staff have come up with dozens of recommendations they said will ensure the site is viable for 14 years, including:
This plan incorporates very few recent moves from the council including heavily debated decisions, like to limit curbside trashes.
statictics about electricity waste, About 65% of energy in power plants we're lost in 2013 that is about 22 quadrillion. When energy is burned to relate heat, this boils water into steam. the steam is sent through turbines and this creates electrical energy although only two thirds of this energy actually makes it onto a grid to create electricity due to the way electricity is produced.
Food waste in canada is about $31 billion worth of food ends up in landfills and composters each year sadly.
most households in canada on average wastes about
