	Burmanet » Agence France Presse: Asia’s rivers being choked by detritus of breakneck development - Sarah ...
		India’s most famous river, the 2,510-kilometre (1,556-mile) Ganges which rises in the Himalayas, is so polluted by industrial and human waste that even those who revere its waters now fear it.
		Imhof said that despite the dire situation, Asia’s polluted rivers are still salvageable, like the Pasig in Manila which a decade ago was “dead, fl, stinking and biologically dead” and which is now in a much improved state.
		There have been a lot of dam removal projects in the US and the river has returned to life in a very short space of time, sometimes as short as 5-10 years,” she said.

	World Rivers Review, August 1998
		Worldwide, these invaluable rivers are now degraded by hundreds of thousands of dams, which have flooded huge areas of the world's most beautiful and ecologically rich habitats and the homes and lands of tens of millions of people.
		People are calling for major changes in the operating patterns of dams to lessen their negative impacts, the decommissioning and removal of obsolete and dangerous dams, the restoration of rivers and the provision of reparations for past damages suffered by riverine communities affected by dams.
		Dams have had huge negative impacts on rivers and river communities - removing dams is an economically, technically, socially and environmentally viable and sensible option for reversing these impacts and restoring living rivers.
