China has begun construction on what will be the world's largest hydropower dam on the Yarlung Tsangpo River in Tibet, a $167 billion project set to surpass the Three Gorges Dam in scale and output. While China touts the dam as a major step toward renewable energy and economic stimulus, the project has triggered alarm in downstream countries, especially India and Bangladesh, over potential impacts on water flow, agriculture, and regional stability. Environmentalists and human rights advocates have also raised concerns about the lack of transparency, consultation, and compensation for affected communities, as well as the project's ecological footprint. The dam is expected to generate three times more electricity than the Three Gorges Dam, but its construction has intensified geopolitical tensions in South Asia. Despite reassurances from Chinese officials, neighboring countries remain wary of the project's long-term consequences for water security and the environment.
