Fortunately in Western Oregon nobody cares - a lot of people have catchment systems for our ample rainfall here! A friend of mine can water his garden for half the summer off what he catches during the winter.

That's nice, because we pay HUGE amounts for water despite having so much of it... our water dept was mismanaged but also decided to meet all its 2020 EPA requirements ASAP, so they spent a couple billion eliminating sewage overflows and such.

Algore was heavily invested to partner with all the evil companies mentioned in the article you referenced.

To single out Bush family reveals your insincerity re environmental issues. Doesn't matter if obama and friends are heavily invested so by your standards, to hell with the environment as long as we can blame Bush.

"A disturbing trend in the water sector is accelerating worldwide. The new “water barons” — the Wall Street banks and elitist multibillionaires — are buying up water all over the world at unprecedented pace. Familiar mega-banks and investing powerhouses such as Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Citigroup, UBS, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, Macquarie Bank, Barclays Bank, the Blackstone Group, Allianz, and HSBC Bank, among others, are consolidating their control over water. Wealthy tycoons such as T. Boone Pickens, former President George H.W. Bush and his family, Hong Kong’s Li Ka-shing, Philippines’ Manuel V. Pangilinan and other Filipino billionaires, and others are also buying thousands of acres of land with aquifers, lakes, water rights, water utilities, and shares in water engineering and technology companies all over the world."
