Dear Asma It is a very important, yet a very widely discussed issue.Alot of in favour of capping the natural resources by one country or state could be found and ofcourse you will be hearing the other version as well. However, I mantain that people and countries just dont exist by chance but their presence evolved by the passage of time and it is but natural that Nature wants them to co-exist. This is just the basic factor, nations or countries tend to forget criminally. Throghout my professional trot, I have been observing first the advocacy hype in the favour of CAPPING the resources and that too expecially water , by those who feel they can gate the natural flow and then after some time instead of countries fighting, states , regions, clans, tribes, groups within the same country fight amongst each other for the natural resource.Later the budget and resources of the nation are spent in conflict management and the wonders of the dam or a barrage get lost in the dust of the quarelling brothers. So the point is that creating a dam wont do good that is what has been my experience. Let aside the environmental concerns which will start to show their teeth after five to ten years, you will observe a bitter collar grabbing as soon as one party becomes the regulator of the resource and the other reciever. So a sagacious move would be to derive the natural share and let the stream flow through and to its natural destiny. Recycling is among one of the best options and ofcourse coupled with solar effeciency.
