Revoke water licences for cotton and rice. When they turn their pumps on the river flows backwards - it's a relatively simple fix. Cotton and rice should not be grown in Australia where water is so scarce.

The current Murray-Darling Basin Plan has failed to restore rivers, wetlands and biodiversity. A new plan built on minor tweaks and ignored climate science will repeat the damage, Quentin Grafton, Richard Kingsford, Sarah Wheeler and John Williams write. #auspol #MurrayDarling #Water
The next Basin Plan is a disaster in the making
Members of the Murray-Darling Basin Knowledge Alliance explain why the original Basin plan was flawed and the proposed new plan will also fail to protect and restore the rivers of Murray-Darling Basin.

The Moonie River winds through southern Queensland, merging with other rivers to eventually become the Baaka (Darling) River.

Water stops flowing for almost 200 days every year. The isolated waterholes remain muddy, whereas once they were clear.

Good to see ongoing focus on #barkindji country and its catchments, communities. Had formative years living at #BourkeNSW - cannot recommend highly enough that people visit, explore, understand this massive arterial river system + advocate for its health. #MurrayDarling
