Article Synopsis
- The recent rise in dam construction has triggered discussions about their roles in carbon neutrality and food security, revealing a balance between economic benefits and environmental impacts.
- Research analyzed the effects of 137 large dams in China from 1992 to 2020, discovering that while carbon emissions increased moderately, carbon storage rose significantly due to forest conservation in affected areas.
- The study also found that nearby agricultural areas may benefit from improved grain yields due to enhanced water availability, emphasizing the need to evaluate land cover changes for better dam placement and carbon emission management.
