關於這本電子書

Lake Waters Power explores the complex history of hydroelectric development in Cree territories, focusing on the environmental impacts and social consequences for Indigenous communities. The book argues that while hydroelectric power was intended as clean energy, it has resulted in significant detrimental effects, challenging common narratives around ""green"" energy.

One key insight is how the flooding of traditional lands disrupted wildlife habitats and altered river ecosystems, while another is the erosion of cultural identity experienced by Cree communities due to displacement and loss of traditional livelihoods.

The book adopts a community-centered approach, prioritizing the voices and experiences of Cree community members through oral histories and archival documents.

Progressing through three major sections, the book first introduces the history of hydroelectric projects, then examines the environmental impacts, and finally, delves into the social and cultural consequences. This exploration is crucial for understanding the trade-offs between renewable energy and Indigenous rights.

The analysis calls for a reassessment of energy project planning to ensure equitable and sustainable development practices.
