In Rondonia, state of Brazil that has been deforested at the highest rate in Amazon, a proposal to build an $11 billion hydroelectric project has set off a controversy. Proponents for the project say that large public works projects includes the dams will create jobs and stimulates an economic growth that lead to a development of the country. On the other side, those who against the project concern about damage to the rain forest and excessive increase of migration that might come to look for jobs. Although they are in opposite possition, advocates on both side insist that their way is the best for the future of Brazil.
