Wind turbines and solar power, two sturdy and growing sources of renewable energy, require negligible amounts of water. Nuclear plants hoover up enormous volumes of water for cooling, killing aquatic life and warming rivers in the process. Rivers provide a cooling effect on nearby lands, functioning as a natural air conditioner.

Two sturdy and growing sources of renewable energy, wind turbines and solar power, use negligible amounts of water. Nuclear plants demand enormous volumes of water for cooling, and they kill aquatic life and make rivers warmer in the process. These technologies require even more energy. It is already 1.1 degrees higher.
