Water bodies and their catchments are not "assets", reducing water to an economic product to be extracted and used by humans with no regard for the web of life, Nature and biodiversity. Water has existed on Earth for more than 4.5 billion years. There will never be any new water, only the water moving through the water cycle. We need to change our perspective to value water as an existential element for all life, including human life. This understanding - well known by indigenous peoples - is growing globally and locally.
