      Hi, I agree with the basic point that a mirror is needed to help primary user community recognise what is happening in their lives. My own experience with the declining open wells in the Luni river landscape in Rajasthan is similar. Here a successful agriculture based on shallow open wells that were rechargeable by the flow of the river has been destroyed and replaced by an unsustainable agriculture based on very deep tube wells. However the tragedy of the change has to be visualised and represented in a way that community can start discussing and debating on the future scenario and implementation. Wells should i think be seen as common property although it would be a radical change in our thinking. BTW Can you explain the chart a little. I could not follow it.
