Blue Gold: World Water Wars, an award-winning documentary, presents how the small amount of fresh water on our blue planet is being depleted at an alarming rate by pollution contamination, overuse, and waste.  What’s even more alarming is how governments, corporations, and private investors worldwide are trying to control this water, which is the most essential of all human needs.  Questions you should ask yourself after viewing Blue Gold are: Where does your drinking water come from? (Do you know your watershed?) Where does your wastewater go?  Water is life and everyone on the face of this planet should have access to it.

From Netflix: Blue Gold: World Water Wars
"Narrated by Malcolm McDowell, this award-winning documentary from director Sam Bozzo posits that we're moving closer to a world in which water -- a seemingly plentiful natural resource -- could actually incite war. As water becomes an increasingly precious commodity, corrupt governments, corporations and even private investors are scrambling to control it … which leaves everyday citizens fighting for a substance they need to survive."
