The loss of photosynthesis and uptake of CO2 would be even greater than what would be saving by hydroelectric power instead of burning coal or oil. The leader added that even there are other areas in which the dams make a serious contribution to the increase in global warming. Among them, the reservoir water that removes large tracts of forests that capture greenhouse gases endangering future business of carbon credits for the region and the country, added to which own decomposition of flooded vegetation produces carbon dioxide and methane. Promotion of mega Hydro nor considers the emission of CO2 during the long process of construction or nor the development of cement to lift the walls. Added to this the risk of climate change located when positioning a new mass of water of 3,600 hectares in the case of the Baker 2 dam in the vicinity of the northern ice field glaciers and along with the other four artificial lakes of HidroAysen make a total of 5,910 hectares near ancient ice. Given this, today we have to do is to look for clean real sources to generate energy. And with that, the best way is to bet on totally renewable and sustainable sources whose data exist in Chile thanks to alternative studies of the universities of Chile and Federico Santa Maria, among other recently launched. Them is clear that Chileans have the opportunity to make things right for the future through non-conventional renewable energy and energy efficiency, coming to perfectly meet the electricity demands for the future concluded the leader. Do not confuse the energy development of Chile with the energy business of a few, in this case because they are owners of water of the country concluded.
