Today, we checked to ensure that all students read the article on water. We then began to watch teh film "Flow". If you were not here, this film can be found in video stores. The questions students were given are as follows (they will be due at the end):

1. What is meant when we say there is a world water crisis?

2. What is the effect of privatization of the world’s dwindling fresh water supply in these areas:

politics:
pollution:
human rights:
dominating world water cartels:

3. What is the crisis at the global scale?

4. What is the crisis at the human scale?

5. What governments are culprits in this? How?

6. What corporations are culprits in this? How?

7. What practical solutions have people and institutions implemented or proposed?

8. What new technologies have been developed to solve this problem?
