After reading just the first paragraph I thought for myself, where is the photo of this river..
And then when reading the entire post that need of "seeing it" not exactly diappeared. But then again you might say the best images you create by yourself in your own head from reading such a text. Still as interested in photos and photographing, and knowing you own a nice digicam. Why not take that photo?
I see enviroment issues are making the headlines all over the world, just as well in Norway as in India, these days. Here in the north the big issue is the climate change. How to stop the world from being turned upside down due to mankind filling the atmosphere with CO2.
When talking about solutions some people say the rich countries should buy theirself out of the problem. Just say, OK I took ten flights across the world. Then I have to pay a fine to the poor countries to help them stop polluting the atmosphere and then it's ok. This way of thinking I believe is stupid. We in the richer parts of the world have to take our turn in stopping release of CO2 gases. In many ways we should take the biggest turn, because we have the ability and because we have had and still have the responsibility for most of the CO2 release in the world.

hey oyvind!!
a noble thought indeed.. i believe you are talking about Kyoto protocol and stuff. Well its high time we remember its one earth and not multitudes of the worlds that we live in. What is true for the first world is equally true for wealth centres in India where villages are subsidising the lifestyles and powercut free atmosphere( metros, huge offices etc.) of cities like Delhi and Bombay..
We are too rethink a lot of things but the first one is to stop blaming poverty.. you can follow up my next post about the yamuna series my team is working on ...
ps: screwed up my digicam:(
