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 that could surpass the Three Gorges Dam in scale and output. The dam is expected to generate massive amounts of renewable energy, boosting China's green finance and infrastructure sectors. However, the project has triggered significant concerns in downstream countries, particularly India and Bangladesh, over potential impacts on water security, environmental risks, and regional stability. Critics also highlight the lack of transparency, consultation, and compensation for affected communities, as well as the broader ecological consequences. The dam's construction marks a major escalation in Asia's water politics, with far-reaching implications for energy, environment, and international relations.
