Textbook Question
Chapter 40.2, Problem 3CC

Answer?
People often propose new dams to deal with increasing concerns about severe drought, but a problem
with this approach is that
dams are ineffective in storing water
dams discourage water conservation efforts
animals can't live upstream of dams, where the water flow changes
terrestrial animals generally find dam water too salty for their use
dams restrict water flow, damage habitats, and can cause degradation of natural areas
