New Zealand rivers - going, going, soon gone

[Flycasta]

I really feel bad for you and all people in New Zealand. It's a lot easier to maintain clean water than it is to clean contaminated water. I see it happening in the USA, too. There was a giant spill in Yellowstone park last week, I believe. I keep urging all of my nephews and all young people to get involved with conservation.

Thanks for your comments.

The big dairy cooperative which dominates New Zealand farming put up another black mark recently (6 August).

It was convicted in court and find $NZ 174,000 for polluting a trout river. The judge gave company representatives a broadside but because top management are on huge salaries I doubt if it made any difference.

"Judge blasts Fonterra for putting productivity ahead of the environment" ran the headline.
