What has happened to the Darling?This cry from the west recently came to HCEC: Who do you know in the cities? Attached are photos of the Darling River below Wilcannia, taken by Neville Crisp on 1st September 2006. I sent them to my daughter in the Blue Mountains , and she sent them on to relatives and friends. Maybe you can do something similar. Ask people to send it on to their email list. I think a lot of people in the cities would be shocked to see what has become of the Darling River . If the media won't show them, maybe we can on email. For the benefit of anyone receiving this, the Darling has been strangled by a combination of climate change and too much cotton irrigation. And the irrigators plan to take another 200,000 megalitres per year.
