BellingenNSW<p>Murray-Darling Basin deal on 'Restoring Our Rivers' </p><p>"Australia is the driest inhabited continent and consequently, much of the fauna and flora are adapted to arid climates. But aridity is an extreme condition, and life is difficult. When we take water from their environment, we can push the flora and fauna to the limits of their survival, and over the edge to extinction. Returning environmental flows closer to their natural levels provides the platypus, rikali (water ‘rats’), fish, frogs, crayfish and other invertebrates the water they need to survive." </p><p>"Extracting too much water stops rivers from flowing, leading to a build-up of toxic pollutants including pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. Too many nutrients can cause extensive algal growths which smother the surface resulting in deoxygenation and fish kills. Often these algae are toxic to humans, livestock and wildlife. When water stops flowing it warms up and becomes deoxygenated, conditions that few species can survive." </p><p>"The water buybacks are a vital initiative to restore the health of Australia’s major river system."

Hari Tulsidas<p>The global water crisis is not just about scarcity but also about justice. The opinion piece's author argues that the crisis's root causes are political and economic, not natural or technical. He calls for a radical transformation of the water governance system based on human rights, democracy, and ecological sustainability. <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/WaterCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/WaterJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterJustice</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/WaterGovernance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterGovernance</span></a> <a href="https://www.eco-business.com/opinion/the-roots-of-the-global-water-crisis/?utm_source=flipboard&amp;utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FArchetypes" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">eco-business.com/opinion/the-r</span><span class="invisible">oots-of-the-global-water-crisis/?utm_source=flipboard&amp;utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FArchetypes</span></a></p>
