    I’d say it’s been around for millenia… probably as long as language at least. Not a fresh idea globally, just for those of us who grew up in a dominionist-type world view.

    I don’t really understand your link to the IPCC figure…

    FWIW, I think “water is alive” is only a concept that makes sense in a context where the water is interacting with other things (e.g. the hydrocycle, winds, tides, ecology). Water in the purified and stored sense isn’t really… Unless it can rust it’s container, I suppose. But yeah, rivers being alive makes lots of sense.
