embankment and demolish i t . Having passed the revetment, the accumulat- ed energies attack the now-unprotected bank with increased force and destroy it altogether. This makes further bank stabilisation imperative. Thus an endless string of revetments are built at enormous cost, which not only make all useful floatation of timber impossible, but also are precisely the most dangerous flow-guides in time of flood. Potential forces are generated and accumulat- ed at these guiding structures. Far below in the valley, where no dangers existed previously, destructive effects will suddenly be unleashed which act equally as unexpectedly as they do abnormally, laying valuable farmland to waste,73 which is scarce enough anyway without this forest-destroying tech- nology. In fact, because of these measures, a stage has already been reached where, almost without exception, all the once-healthy alpine streams, abounding in fish, are now in a positively ruinous condition and devoid of fish-life. In time of flood these waterway ruins convey vast quantities of sediment down into the valley, causing unparalleled havoc, only to dry up again during normal times. Hydro-electric plants being built today are responsible for all the rest of the damage. If our hydraulic engineers contin- ue with their present methods, and should they eventually seize upon the last high-lying healthy reserves of water, then in a few decades we will live to see the day when all the power-stations, built at vast expense, stand empty. In the process we shall also lose the last vestiges of fertile soil which today, even if already in short supply, is nevertheless still available to us. As long as the forester remains within the bounds of practicability, the stream that flows out of almost every forest will deliver the accrued interest, the timber, almost without cost. If the forester (already a forest-despoiler) continues to employ his present methods, altering the fundamental form in which forest flourishes (by clear-felling), then Nature will protect herself. The wholesale clearing of forest very quickly leads to the destruction of watercourses and to the ruination of a previously-profitable means of trans- port. The felling of a forest with limited access to water is no longer worth- while, even if the distance to the water is slight, and the forest is thereby saved at humanity's expense.74 Alternative systems of transport such as for- est railways have seldom proved economic in the long run, because they require extremely large quantities of timber in order to bring in a return on 73The frequently-reported floods in the 1980s and 1990s in Bangladesh similarly derive from recent deforestation in Tibet, Nepal and north India, with catastrophic effects on the Ganges flood- plain. - Ed. felling of timber as such, since he considered it an extremely useful natural commodity. His abiding concern, however, was that forestry and river regulation should be carried out in accordance with natural principles and there- fore sustainably. - Ed. 74Viktor Schauberger was never opposed to thePDF Image | The Water Wizard
