“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.” ― Martin Luther King

Uncertainties in International Water Treaties

Drieschova, Alena; Fischhendler, Itay and Giordano, Mark (2011) The role of uncertainties in the design of international water treaties: an historical perspective. Climatic Change. 105:387–408 DOI 10.1007/s10584-010-9896-4

The initial point of disparity is the significant difference between political boundaries and watershed basin boundaries.  This included questions about watershed basin boundaries themselves.  The issue was more about the human interpretation beyond the factual science involved.  The problems with interpretation created issues for governance and operation beyond the political structures.   These uncertainties inbred in the system made agreements for management and future direction difficult.  Thus, progression to agreement for management over water systems that are naturally in flux became extremely difficult. 

More specifically,  "the dangers of resource degradation, water scarcity and of an inequitable distribution of the resource" create such a level of uncertainty where treaty design and implementation becomes questionable.  Thus, the final ratification and subsequent effectiveness of such a treaty becomes even more unlikely.

Social Indicators

Genskow, Kenneth and Prokopy, Linda Stalker (2010) Lessons Learned in Developing Social Indicators for Regional Water Quality Management, Society & Natural Resources, 23: 1, 83 — 91

This article explored the problem of developing suitable Social Indicators for a region, similar to a watershed.  Often watershed issues involve multiple states, cities and other federal and local regulatory bodies, similar to the Great Lakes region discussed in this article.

New Corporate Environmentalism (NCE)

Forbes, Linda C. and Jermier, John M. (2010) The New Corporate Environmentalism and The Ecology of Commerce. Organization Environment. 23: 465
. . . 100 years ago it may not have mattered how much we understood about business—what makes for healthy commerce—but today it does because I think that we can say in no uncertain terms that business is destroying the world.
. . . I don’t believe that there’s any choice about this. Either we see business as a restorative undertaking, or we, business people, will march the entire race to the undertaker. Business is the only mechanism on the planet today powerful enough to produce the changes necessary to reverse global environmental and social degradation.
—Hawken (1992, pp. 94-95)
The NCE can be defined as rhetoric concerning the central role of business in achieving both economic growth and ecological rationality and as a guide for management that emphasizes voluntary, proactive control of environmental impacts in ways that exceed or go beyond environmental laws and regulatory compliance. (Jermier et al., 2006, p. 618)
