Someone should tell maineman his "green" electricity is not that green after all
It would depend. We've gotten very efficient at it. Coal energy is almost emmissionless.Well, first you would have to show that hydroelectricity is more environmentally unfriendly than other forms of electricity production, such as burning fossil fuels, the predominant form of electricity production in the United States. My strong suspicion is that the methane that results from rotting vegetation and wild life pales in comparison to greenhouse gases produced from burning fossil fuels.

Sorry, it was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek. Hard to hear subtle sarcasm if I don't add the little winkies.Where did you hear that one? Wherever you got that tidbit I would never use that source again. It's totally off base and just flat out wrong.

We should be over to nuclear energy as much as possible. It is far cleaner than fossil energy.

It is more efficient than ever, but it is far from emissionless, which is what I was being sarcastic about. But, clearly, so is hydroelectric power.www.careenergy.com/cleaner_environment/clean-coal-technology.asp
There are many more sites stating the same!

"Often it's accepted that hydropower is a climate friendly technology but in fact probably all reservoirs around the world emit greenhouse gases and some of them, especially some of the ones in the tropics, emit very high quantities of greenhouse gases even comparable to, in some cases even much worse than, fossil fuels like coal and gas," Mr McCully said.
