CHINA-ENERGY-ENVIRONMENT-MINORITIES

TO GO WITH STORY BY SEBASTIEN BLANC This photo taken on March 18, 2015 shows a small hydro-electric power station above the Nu river near Gongshan, in southwest China's Yunnan province. The Chinese government plans several dams on the Nu river, also known as the Salween, which flows from Tibet through Yunnan then south through Myanmar and Thailand, and is the last major undammed river in Southeast Asia. Many smaller hydro power stations already generate electricity from water running off the mountains into the Nu river. AFP PHOTO / Greg BAKER (Photo credit should read GREG BAKER/AFP via Getty Images)
