Flow

The world is running out of fresh water. Without water we have nothing.  The earth would not be what it is without water. Is not a problem we need to take off in 10 or 50 years, it is happening now. Water circulates from the top of mountains down to the rivers then goes out to the seas then it goes up to the clouds then to the top of the mountains again. Many people die every year from water diseases. Most of them are children. Countries like South Africa, Bolivia, China, and India have people in poverty that cannot afford fresh clean water so they have to find their own by drinking from rivers and streams. Some of this water is dirty and people are dying from water diseases.
Organizations want people to pay for the water even when they have no money to pay for it at all. Fresh water is compared to oil and compared to power. The picture people have to understand is who owns the fresh water owns their way of life. The water industry is third in ranking after oil and electricity. Even bottle water is a problem. One out of five Americans will only drink bottle water. Studies have shown some bottle water is even worse than city tap water. Companies are filling bottles with tap water and selling them with pretty pictures to make it look like its water from the mountains.  People don’t know where the water is coming from. Yet no one really is controlling the water industry.  Companies like Coca-Cola, Pepsi, and Nestle are hunting fresh water under the earth everywhere in the world. They are destroying communities because they go and take the fresh water without any charge. How can they get away with doing this? Where is their ethics? Money and corruption is killing people all over the world and is sad.
