The movement for clean water grows

Latest


The stories below are from the nationwide battle for clean water. From Flint to Standing Rock to West Virginia to the pipeline fights that are erupting in rural America, the struggle is butting up against corporate power. This battle did not begin with Trump—but it is escalating rapidly under Trump. The further unleashing of the fossil fuel corporations, the stepped up drive to privatize our water and the dismantling of the EPA, exposes naked corporate rule. The corporations are unashamedly maximizing their profits at the expense of humanity. A powerful movement is galvanizing to exert power over the corporations. Either the corporations take over society or the people take over the corporations. Send your story to peoplestribune.org
