Protecting The Falls
The cofferdam between Goat Island and the mainland was destroyed in November 1969 by dynamite. The exact moment when the dynamite went off, a huge amount of water went along its old route and revived the American Falls. The locals’ worries were now unneeded since the tourists began flocking towards the Falls again. It was good nothing actually changed by the work the engineers have done. All the same, the Falls proved to be much stronger than anyone thought.
It Changed Everything
Even though the absence of water from the Falls didn’t change anything about them, what did make a difference to the Falls was the development of the industry. Generally speaking, the newly-developed area of human work influenced the entire world, but it took the biggest toll on nature. The businesses that used the power of the waterfalls for themselves almost changed the downstream. In fact, it happened in every step of its development. Industry couldn’t let nature work on it’s own apparently without marring it in some way or another.
