Nestle CEO: Only Wealthy People Should Have Access to Water

(Susanne Posel) Peter Brabeck, CEO of Nestle, recently commented that he believes “water should not be a public right, that instead it should be something only the wealthy have access to.”
Barbeck said: “Access to water is not your right believing you have a right to water – is an extreme belief. Water is a raw material and a ‘foodstuff’ that should be privatized and commercialized.”
Nestle owns the bottled water brands:
• Arrowhead
• Aqua Spring
• Calistoga
• Deer Park
• Deep Spring
• Ice Mountain
• Glaciar
• Klosterquelle
• Nestle Wellness
• Nestle Pure Life
• Ozarka
• Poland Spring
• Perrier
• S. Pellegrino
• S. Barnardo
• Water Line
• Zephyrhills
Earlier this year, the Global Water Systems Project (GWSP) declared that “millions of individual local human actions add up and reverberate into larger regional, continental and global changes that have drastically changed water flows and storage.”
The document entitled “The Bonn Declaration” states that “this handicap will be self-inflicted and is, we believe entirely avoidable.”
At the High-Level International Conference on Water Cooperation (ICWC) conference , entitled “Water in the Anthropocene” states that humanity’s impact on freshwater resources were assessed and it was determined that a 3rd of the estimated 7 billion people on earth have limited access to clean water.
Millions if individual local humans affect the regional, continental and global water cycles which facilitate a drastic shortage and untold damage of aquatic ecosystems.
The document stated: “In the short span of one or two generations, the majority of the nine billion people on Earth will be living under the handicap of severe pressure on fresh water.”
Human populations utilize water resources the equivalent of the size of South Africa to tend to the needs of crops. Another Africa-sized amount of water is used on the care of livestock.
Fresh water makes up 2.5% of the total water supplies across the planet. It is estimated that 70% of it is snow and ice-pack.
There is an estimated 366 million, trillion gallons of water on planet Earth. That number appears to be fixed, according to UNESCO’s Intergovernmental Council of the International Hydrological Program (HIP). The alarmist threat of man-made climate change states that where and how this water manifests itself in hydraulic flux across our biosphere is questionable.
The HIP are a UN program system devoted to researching and finding natural water resources and managing those resources found.
While the UN is well aware that the necessity of water as a vital source for life means the retention of power over all life, they are well into their schemes to develop global governance over all sources of fresh, clean water.
The IPCC document HS 15332 Climate Change Impacts: Securitization of Water, Food, Soil, Health, Energy and Migration explains how the UN plans to secure resources to use at their disposal.
 Through the International Monetary Fund (IMF) under-developed countries are forced to sell their resources to the global Elite as “full cost recovery” to the global central bankers. Once those resources are under the complete control of the IMF they become assets to be reallocated back to the enslaved nations for a price.

This scheme makes water sources under central privatization cost more and become less accessible to those who desperately need it. Water prices rise while the quality of it diminishes. This forces natives in places like South Africa and India to collect water from polluted streams and rivers, which compromises their health. The cycle in complete when those who had their water stolen from them through coercion die from contaminated water that they were forced to use.
The UN Environmental Program (UNEP) in a UN-Water Survey of 130 Countries Status Report have forced reformation through international water laws that apply pressure under the guise of “expanding populations, urbanization and climate change”. While clean drinking water for humans is controlled, improvements designed to ensure freshwater reserves for the ecosystem are first and foremost.
Management and use of water under the international agreement known as Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) was back at the 1992 UN Conference on Sustainable Development. This is a part of the Agenda 21 plan. Cooperation of the UNEP and the UN-Water, an inter-agency mechanism to control freshwater resources, relates UN policies to governments on how to allocate their assets.
Achim Steiner, UN Under-Secretary-General and UNEP executive director, said: “The sustainable management and use of water – due to its vital role in food security, energy or supporting valuable ecosystem services – underpins the transition to a low-carbon, resource efficient green economy.”
Steiner believes that integrating UN policies for water resource management will facilitate a sustainable approach to water. The needs of the global population, which is expected to rise to 9 billion by 2050, will demand total governance.
The UN blames population growth combined with communities in rural areas increase the necessity of stricter guidelines to avert “climactic and socio=political disasters”.
The UN “suggests” that by 2015 all countries develop financing strategies and action programs that adhere to the IWRM. They want all nations to report to the UNEP concerning water resources management so that the UN can assess their progress and make changes as they see fit.
Simply put, the securitization of water on a global scale, will be run by the UN only. Their target recommendations will then be directed to individual governments to be made into laws. The citizens of those nations will have no choice but to follow the laws of their countries; if they are to get their ration of life-giving water.
Even in industrialized nations, this will mean the difference between access to fresh, clean water and having to use polluted water sources which threaten our health and well-being.
