This book emphasizes how preserving water is an essential component in preserving all other natural resources. The author, a professor of Civil Engineering, posits that the non-renewable resources utilized in producing energy can be saved by utilizing water power instead. Water power further aids in rendering rivers navigable by eliminating falls and rapids. In this sense, using water power for energy production is a triple conservation: it saves non-renewable resources, aids navigation, and makes water available for domestic consumption. The book gives several examples of projects that have successfully utilized water power, demonstrating how this method is not just economically sound, but also ecologically advantageous.
