Waterspirit organizes with people across the land and planet to ensure we are preventing water contamination and enhancing access to clean, safe water. Storytelling is powerful, tugs at our heart strings and helps us each move into climate action more easily.
This week we mark ten years since the start of the Flint water crisis and urge you to Watch this video📽️from a local photojournalist on the ground sent to us via our friends at Flint Rising.
In this interconnected web of life, we flow justice like water across the land. The action our friends in Michigan need to be taken is signing this petition to Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel demanding that she hold Veolia, the world’s largest private water corporation, and all other responsible parties accountable for their role in the crisis. Flint Rising aims to collect 5,000 signatures as soon as possible. SIGN THE PETITION
The people of Flint still don’t have reliable access to safe water and far too many have escaped accountability for their roles in the ongoing crisis. The Detroit News article out last year reported: Michigan Ends Flint Water Prosecutions Without Conviction.
To bolster the powerful organizing happening on the ground, we’re asking you to take action and show that the world hasn't forgotten about Flint. SIGN THE PETITION
Similar to Flint, Jackson, Mississippi residents have been battling privatized water and forced to grapple with devastating consequences. It is up to residents and resident organizers and allies to ensure people are aware of our water situations.
Check out this new video📽️ supported by Lead Free New Jersey to raise awareness about lead’s impact in Trenton, New Jersey.
Get connected to this effort with us and share your water stories with us; clean, safe water is a human right. Knowledge is power! water@waterspirit.org
