Water is a right, not a property

We live in an inperfect world. For all our collective intelligence and innovation, quality of life on this planet of ours have not improved for the better, particularly for the poor and under-privileged of the world. I hope you can take a moment of your time to view this clip and sign-up for the petition online to the United Nations to make water a basic human right. Water, like the air we breathe or the sunlight that warms us, is not a property to be owned and sold by any one or any organization. Hopefully the next time you pick up a bottle of mineral water, we can stop and think a little about what is its true cost instead of the $1 you have just paid.
