    Interesting. I haven’t heard them called that, even though I’m in a state where most electricity is from hydro, And my state borders Canada.

      Well hello there Washington citizen! WA is the only state in the US to get most of its electricity from hydro.

      You’ve got a great river system up there and WA manages to put it all to great use. If the whole country had that kind of river network, perhaps we’d all be running on renewables…

        Ah - I didn’t know we were the only ones who do. But yes, it’s nice to have that. I understand we also have the largest ferry system in at least the US, although I think that’s not directly related to the rivers.
