[WSMDiscuss] Rights of Rivers: We are the River, the River is Us

[Taghi Farvar]

Excellent article, Ashish! We are going to translate it into Persian and disseminate ot to further the argument in Iran that rivers and other living things have rights—something I've always believed in.

Asunto: Rights of Rivers: We are the River, the River is Us

Pl. see attached or at the links below, an article on the recent 
judgements / legal measures re. rights of rivers in India and New 
Zealand. Comments welcome!

(pl. note that this was written and submitted before the Supreme Court 
in India stayed the High Court's orders recognising the rights of Ganga 
and Yamuna, so the future of this order is uncertain).
