Rethinking environmental law: the future of our rivers

River ecosystem

In a recent ABC Radio interview with experts on the interplay between law and environmental science, it鈥檚 clear our understanding of river ecosystems is evolving.

The Environment Institute鈥檚 pointed out, the importance of maintaining natural water flows is becoming increasingly clear鈥攏ot just for the health of the river itself but for all the life it supports.

While existing environmental laws have played a role in regulating water usage, they often fall short in addressing the complexities of ecosystem restoration. Are we ready to rethink our legal frameworks to better protect and restore our rivers?

What are your thoughts on the need for new legislation to support environmental restoration efforts? How can we balance ecological health with community needs?
