Download or read book Water Management in New Zealand s Canterbury Region written by Bryan R. Jenkins and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-06 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is designed to achieve two major purposes. The first is to describe the developments in water management policy in the Canterbury Region of New Zealand. The strategic approach, the collaborative engagement, and, the nested adaptive systems approach represent a paradigm shift in water management in New Zealand. The second is to delineate the sustainability framework that underpins the Canterbury approach. The framework is based on the concept of developing sustainability strategies to address critical failure pathways. While the focus of the book is on Canterbury, comparative applications of the framework to issues in other parts of New Zealand and international issues are proposed. The book can be used in at least two ways. The first is the application of a sustainability framework to the management of water in Canterbury region. The second is the exposition of a sustainability framework that can be applied to the management of water in a region with the application to Canterbury as an illustrative case study.

Book excerpt: Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere is New Zealand's most nutrient-polluted lake. It is also a crucial wetland habitat of its type in New Zealand, providing essential residences for a broad range of wildlife species. To NgÄ i Tahu (the local iwi), it represents a significant mahinga kai and a necessary source of mana. To all New Zealanders, it once was an important location for both commercial and recreational activities. A yearning to learn more about Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere and contribute to its betterment is the motivation for this thesis. A cause of The Lake's pollution is the restricted drainage and lack of a natural outlet, despite the fact The Lake is in close proximity to the sea. More recently, it has been ravaged by the nearby dairy farming industry, with harmful phosphates and nitrates leaking into the river beds that feed the lake. Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere has been temporarily opened to the ocean for generations to counteract these problems. Proposals to fix Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere have failed because they do not meet local stakeholders' needs. The proposed construction of a permanent outlet designed to clean the Lake was vetoed because of the potential loss of mana for the local rÅ«nanga, Te Taumutu. They have traditionally relied on the seasonal lake opening as a source for kaimoana. Nutrient restrictions for farmers introduced by local councils will partially reduce nutrients in the long term but come at a substantial economic cost to local farmers and the surrounding community. Thus an alternative scheme needs to be proposed. This thesis proposes a functional architectural solution that rejuvenates the lake while balancing the needs of these stakeholders. The solution consists of three interventions: a modular lake farming system designed to remove nutrients from The Lake and provide a viable economic alternative for farmers. The second, a working village intended to complement the lake farming operation. The third, a hybrid landscape of mechanical and environmental infrastructure (constructed from non-invasive materials) designed to control the height and salinity of The Lake while also maintaining mana for the iwi by allowing them to harvest kaimoana in the same way they have for generations. All three interventions are to be interwoven to encourage agri-tourism in the local region. At its core, this thesis documents the processes, research, and designs undertaken to find an architectural solution to rejuvenate The Lake. It also addresses water pollution issues through cost-effective, innovative, and responsible business practices and supporting architectural infrastructure. This thesis proposes a new floating farming industry in New Zealand, reimagines the systems and processes, and develops the necessary infrastructure through architectural processes.

Book excerpt: The right to clean water has been adopted by the United Nations as a basic human right. Yet how such universal calls for a right to water are understood, negotiated, experienced and struggled over remain key challenges. The Right to Water elucidates how universal calls for rights articulate with local historical geographical contexts, governance, politics and social struggles, thereby highlighting the challenges and the possibilities that exist. Bringing together a unique range of academics, policy-makers and activists, the book analyzes how struggles for the right to water have attempted to translate moral arguments over access to safe water into workable claims. This book is an intervention at a crucial moment into the shape and future direction of struggles for the right to water in a range of political, geographic and socio-economics contexts, seeking to be pro-active in defining what this struggle could mean and how it might be taken forward in a far broader transformative politics. The Right to Water engages with a range of approaches that focus on philosophical, legal and governance perspectives before seeking to apply these more abstract arguments to an array of concrete struggles and case studies. In so doing, the book builds on empirical examples from Africa, Asia, Oceania, Latin America, the Middle East, North America and the European Union.

Download or read book Farming Inside Invisible Worlds written by Hugh Campbell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. It is funded by the University of Otago, New Zealand. Farming Inside Invisible Worlds argues that the farm is a key player in the creation and stabilisation of political, economic and ecological power-particularly in colonised landscapes like New Zealand, America and Australia. This open access book reviews and rejects the way that farms are characterised in orthodox economics and agricultural science and then shows how re-centring the farm using the theoretical idea of political ontology can transform the way we understand the power of farming. Starting with the colonial history of farms in New Zealand, Hugh Campbell goes on to describe the rise of modernist farming and its often hidden political, racial and ecological effects. He concludes with an examination of alternative ways to farm in New Zealand, showing how the prior histories of colonisation and modernisation reveal important ways to farm differently in post-colonial worlds. Hugh Campbell's book has wide-ranging implications for understanding the role farms play in both our food systems and landscapes, and is an exciting new addition to food studies.
