Blue Gold: The Fight to Stop the Corporate Theft of the World's Water
The wars of the 21st century will be about water. Increasingly, transnational corp. are plotting to control the world's dwindling water supply. In England & France, where water has already been privatized, rates have soared & water shortages have been severe. The major bottled-water producers -- Perrier, Evian, Naya, & now Coca-Cola & Pepsi-Co -- are part of one of the fastest growing & least regulated industries, buying up freshwater rights & drying up crucial supplies. The consumption of water doubles every 20 years -- more than twice the rate of the increase in human population. This book captures in striking detail the forces behind the increasing depletion of the world's freshwater & its human & ecological impacts.
