What are BWB Texts?īWB Texts are short books on big subjects by great New Zealand writers. Mountains to Sea offers new perspectives on this urgent problem. The book covers a wide range of topics, including food production, public health, economics and Māori narratives of water. In Mountains to Sea, leading ecologist Mike Joy teams up with thinkers from all walks of life to consider how we can solve New Zealand’s freshwater crisis. From across the political spectrum, concern is growing about the pollution of New Zealand’s rivers and streams. The state of New Zealand’s freshwater has become a pressing public issue in recent years. It strikes me with great clarity that if you look at the problems in isolation they each seem intractable but when you grasp that there could be one single solution, then suddenly there is a glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel.
