A Study of Rio Marañón
Over twenty hydroelectric dams have been proposed for the principle tributary of the Amazon River. The currently free-flowing Marañón River cuts through the Andes Mountains and helps sustain resident communities as well as the most diverse ecosystem on Earth.
An international team of scientists and river experts investigated the natural, recreational and cultural resources that would be eminently impacted by the dams during a month-long raft trip on the Marañón.
