Description: 

Welcome to StopNestleWaters.org.

Right now, it’s a site. But it’s destined to become a community.

It’s a gathering point for rural citizens fighting to preserve control of their water supplies and local economies from Nestle - the world’s largest food and beverage company.

It’s information. It’s conversation. And yes, it’s definitely grassroots.

POCLAD: Program on Corporations, Law and Democracy

September 6th, 2008

http://www.poclad.org/index.cfm
Description: 

Giant corporations govern, even though they are mentioned nowhere in our Constitution or Bill of Rights. So when corporations govern, democracy is nowhere to be found. There is something else: when people live in a culture defined by corporate values, common sense evaporates. We stop trusting our own eyes, ears, and feelings. Our minds become colonized. Help us contest the authority of corporations to govern!

Which plastic water bottles don't leach chemicals?

Description: 
To be certain that you are choosing a bottle that does not leach, check the recycling symbol on your bottle. If it is a #2 HDPE (high density polyethylene), or a #4 LDPE (low density polyethylene), or a #5 PP (polypropylene), your bottle is fine. The type of plastic bottle in which water is usually sold is usually a #1, and is only recommended for one time use. Do not refill it. Better to use a reusable water bottle, and fill it with your own filtered water from home and keep these single-use bottles out of the landfill.
