During the first two decades of the twenty-first century, the whole messy truth about the legacy of last century’s big dam building binge has come to light. What started out as an arguably good government project has drifted oceans away from that original virtuous intent. Governments plugged the nation’s rivers in a misguided attempt to turn them into revenue streams. Water control projects’ main legacy will be one of needless ecological destruction, fostering a host of unnecessary injustices.

The Devil's Last Dance By M. Fenton Deutsch The world is teetering on the edge of chaos. Former leaders are becoming dictators, billionaires are fleeing to Mars as Earth burns, and nuclear powers rattle their weapons.
