China has begun construction on what is set to 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, located on a river that flows into India and Bangladesh, has raised significant concerns among neighboring countries about water security, potential diversion of water, and environmental impacts on millions downstream. While China touts the project as a major step toward renewable energy and economic growth, critics highlight the lack of transparency, consultation, and potential human rights and ecological risks. The announcement has also triggered a surge in hydropower and construction-related stocks, reflecting investor optimism about the project's economic benefits. However, the dam's geopolitical and environmental implications are fueling regional tensions and international debate.
