Explanation:

Hydro - power plants convert the energy of moving water into electricity. Unlike coal - burning power plants, they do not burn fossil fuels, so they do not emit greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide during power generation. Water is a renewable resource for hydro - power. Hydro - power plants can have some impacts on ecosystems like affecting fish migration. And they produce less water pollution compared to coal - burning plants.

Answer:

C. It does not emit greenhouse gases.
