Question

How does the construction of dams across the river get linked with the production of greenhouse gases?

Solution

While constructing the dam, the vegetation gets submerged under the waters, in a dam. It will eventually cause the death of these plants and then they will rot under anaerobic conditions and produces methane, which is a greenhouse gas.
