Irena Salina's award-winning documentary investigation into what experts label the most important political and environmental issue of the 21st Century - The World Water Crisis.
Salina builds a case against the growing privatization of the world's dwindling fresh water supply with an unflinching focus on politics, pollution, human rights, and the emergence of a domineering world water cartel.
Interviews with scientists and activists intelligently reveal the rapidly building crisis, at both the global and human scale, and the film introduces many of the governmental and corporate culprits behind the water grab, while begging the question 'CAN ANYONE REALLY OWN WATER?'
Beyond identifying the problem, FLOW also gives viewers a look at the people and institutions providing practical solutions to the water crisis and those developing new technologies, which are fast becoming blueprints for a successful global and economic turnaround.

Yes, We are running out of "Fresh" water. There will be water always but not drinkable. The best Solution... Industrial Size Water Distillers, Not Desalinization. The other solution... Put laws on making chemicals until approved enviromentally safe and eliminate politicians who are not enviromentally proactive.

Dehumidifier and a water filter = all the fresh drinking water you'd ever need - right from the vaporized water in the air. Fuck these pricks trying to turn this into the next crisis, thats all they do - lead us from one fire to the next.
You can buy it in the store. Called Atmospheric Water Generators. With a little effort, a parabolic mirror and a stirling engine you could use sunlight to get an AWG to work all day long condensing water for Africans or who ever the hell.

Now, wait a cotton-pickin' second. I just watched the vice presidential debate here in the USA and former beauty queen, Sarah Palin, unequivocally stated that man has absolutely nothing to do with changing the atmosphere. She's from Alaska, so she must know what she's talking about. I'm glad John McCain picked someone so smart as a running mate. God bless Sarah and her rifle.
