The trouble with dams

Maybe Bob Brown was right about one thing. That is that - it's possible to have too many dams. 
Trouble is the one good point he made seems to have stopped him realizing that he is still a s silly and as ignorant as most of us  and he has not shown any wisdom by resisting the trend in our age to give all dams a bad name.
Worse as a movement. like so many baby Greens shoots they think they know enough to work in the court of human beings when their misanthropy, immaturity, pride and ignorance will only ever create war with the deep truths of nature. And their pride continues to stand in the road of those who know how its profound chemistry and physics must be studied and respected>
They too of course forget  the toughest and most evil beast of all;  human nature itself .
Jung said the only remaining problem for man is man himself.   

THE FLOODS OF early 2024
Not one of our polys have never known what they are doing here, but they keep fiddling and meddling with flows, walls and gates. Finally in 2020's, God had the last say and allowed the horse to bolt in its naturally productive time honored way.
Yet nobody is happy.
Nobody is now sure they want rejuvenation when it's at the cost of huge floods, silt and bedload movement, but that is exactly what is needed to reset the redgum and the other seeds in the wetlands. Make up your minds people , http://cuttingedgecare.blogspot.com.
Our dam creations have, for the first time in decades, played their noninterventionist role by just being pools in the stream flow. Our gates were never going to be opened enough to even create the Environmental Pissing Flows planned by Burke and other burk's, so the huge events needed to get wetlands to rejuvenate, meant the storages stayed close to full till this summer,
Naturally, because of the perversity of men's minds and the predictability of natural forces, these very useful drought, irrigation, power and flood detention storages remain close to full because no one dares to create the sort of flood, bed loads and silt deposition that upsets those riverside visitors who haven't yet lived there long enough to know how to really live with and respect nature.
