EvaluationSocially and environmentally the dam's costs seem to outweigh the benefits because tens of thousands will be displaced and the environment's costs can only be guessed at but they seem to be great. However economically it could allow further socio-economic development in the area and this is why the government are backing this controversial project. However I do not think that economics can be more important than social and environment in this case. I think it is also important to remember though that when Britain was developing, we devastated the environment and did not always follow Human Rights so is this just a necessary step in development? I am not sure in the modern world this is the case. |
