3. Hydropower

5. COST Very Expensive, but not as expensive as some
Cost efficient in the long run

6. Safety Has a big safety hazard which is drowning
Is still safer than other sources of energy

7. Hydropower provides over 30 million homes with affordable power
Reliability 
Proven renewable energy resource generated and used in all regions of the US for over a century.
Hydropower provides over 30 million homes with affordable power

8. Aesthetics
Not very noticeable
Possible to decorate it

9. Environmental impacts
Flooding land for hydroelectric reservoirs
Can have a major impact on aquatic ecosystems 
Global warming emissions can be produced by dams

10. Cultural Impacts Healthier air Good use of taxes
Some worse energies include nuclear and fossil fuels.
People may not like that this is how their taxes are being used
Problems with ownership to access of land and water
Better over time
Other energy sources have it worse
Healthier air
