Hydroelectric power is better for the environment -- just go to a hydroelectric generator and look for the smoke stacks. There are no mufflers or smoke stacks on a hydro generator. A generator without pollutants emitting to the air has to be better for the environment... for the air. However, ecosystems are sometimes negatively affected by the dams set up to provide hydroelectricity, and therefore there are both positive and negative influences by hydroelectricity. Sure, it can slow down global warming, but if you save the polar bears this way you destroy other aqua life.
