Water and Michigan, of course Flint and the ongoing water crisis is the first thing that comes to mind.

The disgusting way in which residents health and quality of life was hurt by a lying government.

These people deserve clean water, they pay taxes for that! Yet they were denied.

Bottled water has been a life saver for many Flint residents, donated, personally purchased, 100s of gallons of the stuff has come into the town to keep people healthy and safe, especially kids.

Well, ironically Nestlé is looking to grow it’s Michigan operations, bottling it’s water for resale. And Michigan regulators have drafter a permit approval for the Swiss mega-corp to pump water, essentially for free (an extra $200 a year)! 201m gallons a year!

This is almost double what it already pulls out of the ground. Under state law it’s well in Evart is considered a private well.

Maybe the giant plans to create a ton of new jobs, maybe that’s why they should be able to take this water, right? WRONG!

They have claimed they created a massive 20 new jobs!!!!

WTF!

Residents, understandably, are not happy! The plant already takes a lot of water from these grounds, over 200m gallons a year. The m expansion is big for the company and just walks over the rights of the locals, do you agree?

How can we stop this?

There are calls to stop the plant operating.
