The global water crisis has dramatically intensified in recent years: droughts, pollution, and massive interventions in nature threaten to trigger the migration of entire populations. However, there is still time to avert a tragedy. In "Blue Future," internationally renowned author and water activist Maude Barlow presents solutions and explains through a wealth of concrete examples how the human right to access water has been enforced internationally and which global actors continue to obstruct its realization. Why water should not be treated as a commodity like any other traded in open markets, how we can protect springs and aquifers, why we must align our laws with those of nature if we want to survive, and how the concentration of power in the hands of agribusiness and water monopolies can be dismantled.
