In my region, for the last 19 years our river parliament has made the rules and regulations that everyone follows, and everyone has enough water. They say that only with a high price for water can we get disciplined use, but this is not right. Powerful corporations have created a water market-they pollute our rivers and make us pay money for drinking water. Only with all these factors can we ensure that rivers are healthy and only then that we are healthy. This type of thinking doesn’t exist today but we need this kind of legal framework that assures that the land of the river is only for the river, that the flow of the river is kept clean, and that the river has greenery on both banks to prevent erosion and silting. RS: If we really think about legal changes, we have to first think about river rights, or the rights of nature, and only then about water rights for humans.
