The need for strong bold action to restore and protect the MD Basin environment has never been needed more than at this time. We need decisive action and political courage, along with strong and clear messaging, to achieve effective implementation and to secure sustainable management of the Basin’s water resources. A failure of water resource management to achieve and maintain a Healthy River will adversely affect all Basin communities.
Decisive, immediate intervention to halt the ecological decline in the CLLMM area is the highest priority as this will in turn improve the entire MD Basin system long term. If we under-resource this part of the system, we degrade everything upstream. A river dies from its mouth back throughout its catchment.
