#SaveOurDarling #Baaka #WaterWatchRadio Last night on the Hill's Water Watch Radio ep.62 NSW H20 Min. Rose Jackson apologised 4 NSW Govt stuff up #WilcanniaWeir community consult'n but not 4 design changes. podcast | Water Watch (waterwatchradio.com)

'... Aboriginal cultural science is strongly rooted in this (holistic systems) sentiment and should be foundational to how we address connectivity within the Northern Basin. Caring for Country means there is a cultural obligation to get water to communities downstream.'

– like the 2022 events captured here. As the climate emergency accelerates, seasonal rainfall patterns will continue to fluctuate in potentially volatile ways, with unprecedented consequences for the basin’s residents, businesses and wildlife.'

Asking irrigators to give up water they claim will hurt communities. Only 5% are employed by irrigators. If you don't want to keep the river alive then hand your licenses in because to us mob, that is what keeps us alive. Rose Jackson

Please take this on board Rose Jackson - it reflects well on our cultural understanding of the river and what it needs to thrive, it thrives and so do we, the First People who maintained it for 50,000 years. water.dpie.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/…
