Authors: Maude Barlow and Tony Clarke

The world's most fundamental and indispensable resource - water - is becoming scarcer, fast. In fact, a global shortage of water is looming as one of the most threatening ecological, economic, and political crises of the 21st century.

Blue Gold tells the frightening story of the commodification of water and its consequences. It illuminates the issues and starkly identifies the choice we have to make: to become responsible custodians, managing and distributing water in the public interest.
