James Cameron and Sigourney Weaver campaigning against the construction of Belo Monte hydropower plant Some don´t want to discuss trade-offs, such as water reservoirs also “store” wind Some don´t want to discuss trade-offs, such as water reservoirs also “store” wind

What happens if the plant is built? What happens if the plant isn´t built? What happens if the plant is built? What happens if the plant isn´t built? Local impacts X Global impacts Local impacts X Global impacts When deciding about a new infrastructure project…

What happened in Brazil because of the difficulty to build new hydropower projects with storage reservoirs? 2014 drought + lack of storage reservoirs = thermal plants burning fossil fuels U$ 10 billion 73 million tons of CO drought + lack of storage reservoirs = thermal plants burning fossil fuels U$ 10 billion 73 million tons of CO2
