Finally, having control of a river can help mitigate the damaging impacts of flooding.

There are a lot of ways to mitigate this issue.

But we can use this simple demonstration to show a few ways that engineers mitigate the potential damage from water hammer.

Part of that means being able to predict surges in pressure due to water hammer and design systems that can mitigate any potential damage that might result.

Policies that invest in renewable energy sources, cut fossil fuel production, support electric transportation, protect our forests, and regulate industry can help mitigate the worst effects of climate change.
