Environment Watch Karayan Abra - Save The Abra River Movement (STARM)No to mining in Palawan
Why should we be concerned about the
Abra River system?
Yearly fish kills, death of domestic animals that drink from its banks, skin disease among those who bathe in it, poor agricultural yield, disappearing fish and plant life – these are some of the complaints aired by communities living along the banks of the Abra River. The existence of rich river flora and fauna and the use of watercraft for small-scale trade even in the smaller rivers that the Abra
River supplied are now only familiar in oral accounts.
Is the Abra River biologically dying? Is it on the brink of environmental collapse? What will be the fate of the indigenous peoples, peasants and fisherfolk living along its banks? Let us act now before it is too late.
What is the historical significance of the Abra River system to the peoples of the Cordillera and Ilocos Regions? With its headwaters originating from Mt. Data along the Mountain Province-Mankayan, Benguet border and its estuary situated in Caoayan, Ilocos Sur, the Abra River traverses the present Cordillera

Wetlands sustainability report3 -South Africa EditionNET Africa
Special edition: South Africa Regional Report Did you know that Botswana pioneered water accounting in the late 1990s and early 2000s?
This week we focus on Botswana, the South African country that pioneered water accounting in the late 1990s and early 2000s. We look at the progress they have made and how they have changed the way, we account for water all over the world.
We also feature Lake Malawi, which is a freshwater lake in the Africa Great Lakes region. It is rich in biodiversity with over 800 species of cichlids. Part of this lake due to its scenic beauty and outstanding universal values is a World Heritage Site. However, since 2011, the oil industry has explored Lake for oil. According to a number of leading environmental experts, including Godfrey Mfiti, any oil drilling in this Lake is detrimental to the survival of wildlife and available freshwater from this Lake. We review a book discussing the argument against oil exploration.
