Depends wich native americans. The yaquis are doing farly well.
Many other native peoples enjoy some autonomy and are no worse than regular mexicans.
Then again....
I knew a girl who worked at a goverment hispital in yucatan and the hospital was secretly sterilising mayan women after they gave birth. Mind you this was 15 years ago so they may not be doing that any more.
As for the river. The dryng of the colorado river has been an ecological disaster. People blame the iminent wxtinction kf the vaquita on chinise demand for totoaba bladers. But the reality is that both lost their habitat wichwas the river delta. Many dolfins and similar creatures are adapted to deltas. I beleve there is also a dolphin in the rio de la plata delta. So when the river dries out they die out illegal fishing or no. Illegal fishing is also a problem but the damming of the colorado is the main problem.
But in general im pro dam is built responsibly. Dam power is reliable and efficient.
Anyways, yeah damming a river and drastically cutting the flow cuz you are using all that water to irrigate fucking golf courses is gonna wreck everything, but there can be a mixed thing where the river is damed but keeps the same flow so flash floodings are prevented.
I guess this probably reduces electricity output somehow? And definitely you wont be able to irrigate all those fucking lawns
Yes but eventually the damn is always full and you use a constant flow equivalent of the mean yearly flow of the river before daming to produce electricity, right?
Otherwise you wouldn't be able to output the same year-long, right?

Probably the other way around since power is proportional to heigth of the water level and flow. The less you use for irrigation the more electricity.

A bit less due to evaporation losses but yes.
There should be more solutions to un-disrupt migration inside the river
There are dolphins in the rio de la plata??? Naah, you must be thinking about the pink dolphins of the amazonas
WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE RIGHT WHY NOBODY TOLD ME OF THIS https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontoporia_blainvillei
IT'S THE SMALLEST DOLPHIN
I always thougth toninas didn't came close to the river
