    Boycott Nestle, Says Petition After Company Outbids Town For Water

    https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2016/0..._12157042.html

    I think we have our very own version of this happening right here in the wine country where corporations are extracting water via grape production at an alarming pace. Hence our aquifers are being mined in such a way that nature can not replenish quickly enough and it's frightening to see that industry can consume our existing water supplies upon which all of life depends.

    its not just the wineries, although they use a great deal & don't pay for it. is to record every drop taken out of river & have those who use it, pay for it based on flow availability.
