Resist Nestle!

Quick Action: Petition


Across the globe, Nestlé is pushing to privatize and control public water resources.




Nestlé's Chairman of the Board, Peter Brabeck, has explained his philosophy with "The one opinion, which I think is extreme, is represented by the NGOs, who bang on about declaring water a public right. That means as a human being you should have a right to water. That’s an extreme solution."

Tell Nestlé:

“Water is a public right. Start treating it like one and stop privatizing our resources.”

Nestle, Israel, Palestine, & Water:

Access to adequate safe, clean water is a human right. A human right that it is not surprising to learn that the country that would give Nestle its highest award would deny to Palestinian people.

 "Nestle received from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 1998 the Jubilee Award, the highest tribute ever awarded by the State of Israel in recognition of those individuals and organizations, that through their investments and trade relationships, have done the most to strengthen the Israeli economy."  http://vpm.org.my/bds/35-why-boycott-nestle

Access to adequate safe, clean water is a human right.  A human right that Israel denies the Palestinian people.

“An estimated 1.2 million Palestinians in Gaza still have no running water. In addition, insufficient electricity supplies bar them from treating or pumping sewage, causing a risk of pandemic diseases such as cholera or typhoid.”

“Israel targeted one water tank, 26 wells, three desalination plants and dozens of sanitary sewer lines during its war on Gaza.” http://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/originals/2014/10/gaza-infrastructure-damage-leaves-many-without-water-power.html##ixzz3HAxXMFPz

Israel also targeted agricultural water infrastructure during their most recent bombardment of the Gaza strip, vastly curtailing Palestinian farmers’ ability to care for livestock and produce crops:

Israeli policy of destroying Palestinian access to water also affects the West Bank:

Israel has a long history of depriving Palestinians access to water:

Water + Oil = Apartheid

The California Oil & Gas Industry uses and contaminates 2 million gallons of water every day. https://www.facebook.com/350.org/photos/a.136077452707.110998.12185972707/10152587066627708/?type=1&fref=nf

To more clearly understand how this all adds up to apartheid please see our posts on war crimes.  Please boycott all bottled water to whatever extent you can.  And park your car, at least one day a month.  We can be the change!
