What a load of shit. Just imagine if they would mix sugar and color to the water then according to this movie it would be OK since it is not water!!!!! So companies like Pepsi and Coca Cola who literally sell water as a mix of sugar and other chemicals! WTF use your brain and don't just believe any movie.

[DokLabCom]

@paddi241 You can live without coke or pepsi or without beer and other processed food. You have a choice to say no to those products. But you cannot live without water. So if a corporation tries to control that very basic resource, you better pay attention.

[paddi241]

@DokLabCom Well you can as well say no to bottled water and drink tap water. Oh i know there are some countries where they can't drink from the tap but in that case isn't it good that they can buy bottled water?You can't blame companies like Nestle for delievering clean bottled water. Because it's their governement that fails to bring them clean water. Even if they control the well in that specific country they could nationalize it.

[DokLabCom]

@paddi241 You are right – it is not that simple in countries, where there isn't clean water supply. Should we blame companies like Nestlé? In the words of Maude Barlow (in the film): "There is no easy short term solution to this (...) but the solution is not a corrupt government combined with a transnational corporation that is out for their own profit – that's the deadliest combination".

i think it's great that you took this subject and made a dok about. people have to wake up and realise what goes on in the big business ... water belongs to us all! i wish that this dok makes it all around the world - one big wake up call ;-)

... it's never too late, we are the world!

…We need water as we need air to survive! So good water should be a granted right for everyone! Or will we soon have to pay for the air we breathe?? The principle is the same… think about it!

[larissamargherita]

...And what is not ok is that they try to sell their bottled water even where there's great tap water, in the places where Nestlé takes it from.

Don't be blinded from their "good" action of bringing good water where tap water is undrinkable.

This is good, but on the other side, they do a lot of harm which is not good. Profit-orientated companies hardly will keep a moral balance… We'llnever know the whole truth, but their marketing communication will always show the shiny part!...

[larissamargherita]

What is not ok, is that they take most of the water from sorces causing nearby springs to dry out, leaving local farmers without water supplies for their agriculture, as they do for example in Pakistan. Of course bottled water is only a very small part of the world's total fresh water, but that doesn't help the locals… they need it right there, but Nestlé took it away to make profit...

@DokLabCom I agree on your last point. However I find that this movie completely misses it's target. Water especially in the western world is just way to cheap it's subsidized by the government. Brabeck once said there is no human right to have a swimming pool. He explained that everyone should get 25l from the government for free while everything over that u need to pay for it.

@Ruebsal Schonmal nachgedacht dass hier in diesem Fall der grösste Teil des Wassers über die Leitung (Staat) kommt und nicht in abgefüllten Flaschen.

Und das in Europa generell Wasser subventioniert und somit viel zu billig ist und dadurch verschwendet wird (Staatsversagen).

[Ruebsal]

@paddi241 Schonmal über die Möglichkeit nachgedacht dass die "grossen Firmen" mittlerweile über "dem Staat" stehen könnten?

[motim92]

@nw0330 genau, z.B. einige NGOs haben es so weit gebracht, dass DDT verboten wurde, dannach stiegen die Malariainfektionen wieder in die Millionen. Das ist die Folge, wenn man aufgrund hypothetischer Vermutungen(Krebs, möglicherweise Schadet es bestimmten Vögel) ein Mittel verbietet, dass Millionen das Leben gerettet hat. Aber über ein solchen "gutgemeinten" Massenmord wird kein Film gedreht.

Zum Film: "Das Spiel mit dem Tod" fällt mir dazu ein.

[paddi241]

@MultiDuke33 Ich hab den daumen runter gegeben weil der film so was von Einseitig ist und keine Lösungsansätze bringt. Das Wasser weltweit knapp ist stimmt schon es ist aber nicht die Schuld der grossen Firmen sondern der Staat der es wieder einmal nicht auf die Reihe kriegt,
