WATER IS LIFE!
Our campaign to kick Nestlé-successor BlueTriton Brands out of a drought-stricken national forest is gaining traction and the attention it deserves. It’s a moment of accountability that our years-long campaign – and your support – has finally made possible, and we’re closer than ever to returning more water to the San Bernardino National Forest than was used to create artificial snow for the 2022 Winter Olympics.
But we need your help.
The Story of Stuff Project has been paying 100% of the legal bills for the San Bernardino campaign since 2015, totaling $200,000. Counting only up to January 31, we have spent over $75,000 on legal bills solely for this hearing. For context, we haven’t spent this much on legal fees in the last 4 years combined. But that’s just how important this campaign is – a milestone in our journey to reclaim our precious water from corporate theft. With your help, we’re sending a clear message to bottling operations across the country: water belongs in rivers and mountain streams, not plastic bottles! Help us get across the finish line today.
