What this shows is that even severely damaged ecologies can be largely healed and restored in as little as a decade through scientific planning and proper investment by a powerful central authority that can mobilize society toward this goal. In addition, a smart ecological restoration initiative will also benefit the local economy. Cleaning up rivers from pollution opens up possibilities for recreational activities and tourism, sustainable fishing, etc. just like how combating desertification can revitalize local agriculture and bring new economic opportunities for the people living there.

Meanwhile, the US administration is removing EPA water protection rules to allow corporations to pollute at will. Back to the days of the Cuyahoga River catching on fire. "Experts say the administration has launched ‘war on all fronts’ to undo environmental rules."

And the beauty of liberal democracy is that there is absolutely nothing you can do about that for another two and a half years. At which point still nothing will be fixed, but you will, for a brief time, have the feeling that you are making a difference by voting for the other team. Really wonderful system, just the best there ever was, and there really is no alternative and if you suggest otherwise you are an evil authoritarian commie dictator islamic theocrat.
