- Summary:
- EPISODE 9: When there is not enough water for everyone, people will risk their lives to get their share. Unfortunately there is no simple answer in finding a way to divide water equally. Water distribution has troubled the provincial leaders and farmers along the Zhang River as well as the Water Use Association in Hubei Province and the entrepreneurs from the Ordos region in Inner Mongolia. All struggle with sharing water. As leaders throughout China struggle to find a fair way to deal with water rights in China, they are influenced and often hindered by government control, legal constraints and market regulations. It is not easy to find justice among the stakeholders of the planet's ecosystems.
