When trying to determine the best option one has to think about many different factors. One has to think about people; how many people will this new resource benefit? Will this resource affect the surrounding towns we are producing near? Also one has to look at it in more of an environmental stand point and ask, \u201cIs this the best resource for the town, county, state, or even the Nation or World?\u201d One will also ask is this harming many species or is this beneficial? What one is doing when researching different resources for electricity is weighing the pros and cons. This is exactly what I am doing in this paper for hydro electric power. More specifically I am weighing the pros and cons of two dams in Lewis County to see how these dams have been harmful or beneficial.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Hydro-Electric-Power-1.pdf\" rel=\"\">Hydro Electric Power<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Photo Essay<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_1658\" style=\"width: 585px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1658\" class=\"wp-image-1658 \" src=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft1-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"Mossyrock Dam\" width=\"575\" height=\"383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft1-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft1-676x450.jpg 676w, https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1658\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mossyrock Dam<\/p><\/div>\n<div data-carousel-extra='{\"blog_id\":174,\"permalink\":\"https:\\\/\\\/sites.evergreen.edu\\\/environmentalhealth\\\/hydro-electric-power\\\/\"}' class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular\" data-original-width=\"676\"><div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 671px; height: 295px;\"><div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 448px; height: 299px;\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/hydro-electric-power\/moorcroft2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1690\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,798\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Moorcroft2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft2-300x200.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft2-1024x681.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/Moorcroft2-444x295.jpg\" width=\"444\" height=\"295\" align=\"left\" title=\"Moorcroft2\" \/><\/a><div class=\"tiled-gallery-caption\">The top of Mossyrock Dam<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"gallery-group images-2\" style=\"width: 223px; height: 299px;\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-small\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/hydro-electric-power\/dsc_7332\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1695\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/DSC_7332.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,798\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_7332\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/DSC_7332-300x200.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/DSC_7332-1024x681.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/environmentalhealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/174\/2016\/02\/DSC_7332-219x146.jpg\" width=\"219\" height=\"146\" align=\"left\" title=\"DSC_7332\" \/><\/a><div class=\"tiled-gallery-caption\">Bottom of Mossyrock Dam.
