Viktor Schauberger's early appreciation of the intimate relationship between water and forest, and their dual influence upon water resource management, the landscape's health within particular precipitation areas - is undoubtedly correct. His perception of these complex and important questions of human existence was rooted in his experiences within the natural environment of temperate Austria Here the natural processes of destruction are slow in reaction to human environmental mistakes. In the tropics, where the landscape is more vulnerable, the rapid consequences of human forest clearance are more obvious and extensive. This often leads to the collapse of the drainage system, serious erosion, the destruction of productive land, the disappearance of vegetation and fauna, aridity, and even negative repercussions far out to sea, because of the river's unnatural sedimentary outflow reducing the light intensity of coastal waters, thus killing coral reefs which had provided living and breeding grounds for commercially important fish species living in the open sea Schauberger's theories about Europe are, in the tropics, thus verified in a convincing and shocking way. We, in the temperature regions will, in the long run, experience similar damage to our renewable natural resources if harmful ecological measures are allowed to continue within the productive environment. Man has a propensity to plan and execute the exploitation of natural resources with sights set on immediate or the earliest possible returns, without regard to the long-term perspectives or ecological relationships. Modern forestry illustrates this. ...
