Abstract
Joint India–China development and utilization of waterpower resources in eastern Tibet could facilitate a mutually beneficial balance of geopolitical power in the Himalaya. A multi-national macroproject, consisting of one inflatable bladder dam, a short pressure tunnel and a powerhouse, all harnessing the sharp descent of the Yarlung Zangbo (Brahmaputra River) at a topographic course loop, could supply Earth's two most populous nation-ecosystems a low-cost means of rapidly improving national standards of living.
