IV - Waves of energy: in defence of water
Summary
Editors' introduction
Warrior Salmon – yours is knowledge and the onrushing power of life! With you we live and die.
The conatus raised in the first three parts of the book is now grounded in accounts of ecological peril, sociopolitical dialogue, environmental activism and a call to arms for the defence of water. Contributors share accounts of emotional, environmental and spiritual engagement in place, and revitalization of self, community, place and waterways. The interdependence between human and water is celebrated in activism and reciprocity. We seek to raise awareness about the plight of water; to regenerate and renew community and nature through replanting wetlands, restoring riverbanks, revegetating coasts and re-establishing undersea meadows. What threads of dialogue must we now draw together? What will be the fate of the liquid blue, and where must we now orient ourselves to develop a sustainable future for ourselves and for water?
