Blue covenant : the global water crisis and the coming battle for the right to water

Barlow, Maude. (Author).

Summary: "Blue Covenant" is a sequel to "Blue Gold", which exposed how a handful of corporations are gaining ownership and control of the earths dwindling water supply. Barlow is at the center of an international, grass-roots-led movement to have water declared a basic human right, something that cant be bought or sold for profit. Maude Barlow traces the history of many battles, documents the life-and-death stakes involved in the fight for the right to water, and lays out the actions that we as global citizens must make to secure a water-just world. The issue of water has now become very personal. Print run 15,000.
