Target:
Water For Life Not Profit
Sponsored by: 
In third-world countries their are hundreds of people being killed everyday over who controls their water. Some of you might not know but Dasani is the leading privatized corporation who is profiting from stealing villages well water and bottling it up and selling it the U.S.A. Poland Springs might seem less to blame up, but 40% of their product is from the Middle East.

We the undersigned, believe that water should be used for live. Water is a vital substance that should be offered to everyone. I would like it if you took the time and invested more money into the stop of privatization of water sources. Thank you for letting me take the time and explain how we all feel.

Water is a public right. Many investors are buying water because they know huge demand will be there in the future, when the scarcity becomes more apparent.
