9:11 am
a question and then mostly dismissed it. water does not have sophisticated trading market and has no substitutes. the questions not going to go away, which is probably not ready for it yet. ah, goldman sachs and it's investors must wait. public opinion is not ready yet. it's not until 2015 and the international climate change conference in paris that the well leaders finally declare a state of emergency. we are here. we are now replace on short term interest behind the air that our young people will breathe in the food that they will eat in the water that they will drink and the hopes and dreams that sustain their lives. then we won't be too late for them.
9:12 am
in the developed world for the last 100 years, we haven't had to think about our water or worry about our water. it's been essentially unlimited wherever we want it whenever we want it. it's been really inexpensive. no one thinks about their water bill. they don't say, oh, take a shorter shower. the water is too expensive. i think that euro is over climate change is going to have a huge impact on water availability around the world. the same amount of water is going to be available in the big picture, but we don't live in the big picture. we live in a specific place. we raise our food in a specific place. and so the movement of that water will have a dramatic impact on how cities manage their water and how we are able to grow food
9:13 am
to feed over the climate emergency demands radical changes. wall street brim box on its mission city group, one of the largest us banks, publishes a report announcing the in the free water if you're wasting water on a gigantic scale in certain regions, ike california, southern spain, the are seeing scarcity of water, of sometimes extreme degrees maybe have had thank us filters, water sailing to barcelona. ah, there is no alternative to pricing water properly. and making people
9:14 am
realize that every time to take a sip of water, there is an opportunity cost and they feel it in their wallet. how else are you going to get people to use less? if you give it to them for free? ah, the dam has broken. the soft sounds of liberalism grow louder to celebrate the union of finance and water. yeah, go to she, acid markets, selling water derivatives, even the high frequency traders, the hedge funds would become interested. so no, everybody sees this as an opportunity did real come. you question is just when and who will push it 1st and hardest. and what would be their motivation in incoming prophets while or so, you know,
9:15 am
indirectly doing good for humanity. so it's the best of all possible worlds. what could be better? it's very amorro to tread water. my will to be immoral to trade water because what is life he pay for health care? just because it's life doesn't mean it cannot be priced ah. the last stage in the financial ation of the loan to a stock market index to buy some water prices. buy knows that a stock exchange specialize in technology. this is the 1st time that water has been reduced to an elder
9:16 am
who the man who came up with the equation works in central london. as a form, a trade in a swiss bank, he launched the carbon markets where industrialists trade rise to pollute in the form of credit. before he discovered water, water used to be free in the but the world is changing is too much stress on the system and the most important commodity on earth can't be free forever. if you want to put it into the creed scenario,
9:17 am
if you don't control it and use it properly, what will the rhetoric the happen? he says that the cash will have it and those about the cash. what happens loans. coogan is the sort of man who looks to the future in order to attract investors to find that he's joint forces. but the top water expert in the united states. and i wanna drive around in your dad's gonna just pull around to the side, mom in law, throw some hail, scoot way back up there. look like the grain. a cowboy living in idaho, and the western united states. the only man who knows the secrets of a market that was until now reserved for experts and inside of clay landry runs a company that has recorded every water transaction since the year. 2000. when
9:18 am
i got to call, it was unusual. it was a little out outside of our you know, our normal focus. i was intellectually curious. you know, from our standpoint it was relatively easy because we had the data on both. okay. we go get on their dinner now because they like lots of food, just like you it isn't a reliable index to be clear where you're not buying water. you're buying the price of water stuff. so you're not taking physical delivery of the water. so it's a little bit under is a bit. yeah, it is a bet. were just betting whether the price is gonna be higher. look at 6 months from now. so like i said, this is the condition on what the price. is it a speculation? i think we all are managing on what we think the futures going to look like.
9:19 am
can get their pet in here. what is in free? nobody worry. we're all happy. that's going back into the dark ages. i was in the called market 2006 to 2012 people told me like, what's his nonsense, a judge? not in the front page or the nice if what people are saying is coming, you better be on top of your water situation. where you're going to be without water. and what i'm doing is getting people's focus through financial instruments to see what is actually going on on the grab. it changes the work, the world of walton
9:20 am
as in australia, both partners have gained the support of powerful local environmental organizations . finance. you seem to be winning the environmentalists over oh ah ah. so we're see more non profit organizations forming to participate in that market. and again, looking at ways to acquire water in areas where it's needed for stream flow either for fishery benefit, water quality benefit or some other type of,
9:21 am
of habitat protection. the environmental water trades make up about a quarter of the market. is it too late to stop a financial take of a bed on water a week long heat wave is letting out in the midwest and northeast. the temperatures are rising to dangerous levels in the west, excessive heat watches and warnings are posted tonight and parts of california. at the same time, nearly 40 large wildfires are burning across the wet. they run to california has built up its wealth through water. here the reserves are in the north, whilst the cities and farms are in the south. oh, in order to domesticate. ringback this resource. ringback ringback ringback a huge canal at the bilmar transporting billions of gallons of water. climbing over
9:22 am
the mountains, irrigating the fertile valleys before supplying the people of los angeles. the california aqueduct is the essential artery that ensures the life and prosperity of 40000000 p. e. but climate change threatens the californian dri, california doesn't charge farmers for water. if they drill a while and pop out of the ground, they can pump as much as they want. whenever they want. not only is there no charge, no one even keeps track of how much water they use. and during the last drought, which was just a year and a half ago, some of the farmers in the central valley of california. we're pumping so hard that the ground was falling, the ground was collapsing by an inch
9:23 am
a month. mm. oh. but the water, not so much water. we're down there. so today i am declaring a drought emergency in the state of california. ah, reco drugs and disastrous wildfire, california has been catapulted into the world of extreme weather phenomena. father, he's supposed to be safe in the middle of the last drought, california passed a really important law that's gonna change water use in the state forever. it may change what gets grown and fornia it may change who succeeds and who fails.
9:24 am
under pressure from environmentalists, the government is forced to vote in a new little cold sigma which limits under ground water extraction. from now on california and farmers and cities will be entitled to a specific water quote based on their consumption. a revolution in the land of the free sigma or the sustainable ground water management act. initially, i think was viewed with fear and trepidation. i think people recognize that it was a necessary piece of legislation, just like balancing your checkbook for your home, or you can't live by writing checks for more money than you have. and so i think collectively the valley is endorsed it and supports the idea of sustainability. we get somewhere in bakersfield, or the local water agency has decided to create a stock exchange to allow pharmacy to buy and sell that quotas. none of those to 10
9:25 am
years after australia in california is coming around to the concept of watermark rates in and you may be your july and you say, wow, based on this projection, i'm going to have a supply surplus. you may decide, you know, i'm going to manage that. i'm going to go into the market and make that available and maybe generate some additional economic value. so if it falls through afterwards, we hit confirm and it falls, do they didn't pay or they didn't, you know, it doesn't work out. how do we let you know again that i want to take my water back? you know, to me, you can, i that once you hit confirm, as far as the district is concerned, the transaction is complete. there's, there's going to be some growing pains, and certainly it's not going to be perfect every time, but we're trying to structure something that seems straightforward. some of the people, the wheels were beginning to turn and they were thinking, can i turn this to my advantage? is there a way for me to generate additional value? and i think the just the word market invokes in people a sense of,
9:26 am
is there an opportunity, can i somehow be advantaged by participating? and that's by far the, the most common reaction that i have when people hear that, you know, we're creating a market for water. i think they view it as an opportunity contract with you probably are not a platform provider. i don't have skin in the game in terms of your bottom line here. again, environmentalists are at the forefront encouraging the establishment of these markets. you know, we're here because we, we see it as an important tool for flexibility as folks are dealing with more and more scarcity under sigma and in climate change in general. so we've been talking to eric for some time since this is ground 0 for ground water overdraft. it would be great to actually experiment with how water training can benefit this region. valley here is definitely ground 0, but there's groups in sonoma, there's groups in eastern lea, madera, fox canyon. everyone probably sorry many,
9:27 am
it's christy about it and i work i thought you were, i'm very surprised that the pro environments are a pro market the i was to initially i think, you know, after we had a chance to talk and understand what their interest were and recognize that we were very much aligned, these transactions have to be evaluated, not just from a financial standpoint, but we also have to take into account the environmental impacts, water quality issues, all the things that they're concerned about. and so it's good to have their input and their vision. and so that, that answers your 1st question. i mean, we don't know right now we're just kind of trying to project into the future. would you imagine that situation before? no, this is i think, taken many of us by surprise 4 or 5 years ago. this would not have been possible why supply has been constrained by definition of sustainability. and so the market i think is necessary. ah.
9:28 am
will california become the new australia will intensive agriculture monopolized this resource and will small farmers disappear, sacrificed in the name of water profitability wall street's new creek, or join the debate. you know that the sector she was empowered by history, the government, and stained by the daily government today they are the government africans. count. security is also a global health security. on an online, at your voice, there is no right to defense. there is no right to protest, we can't just keep relying on aid. there has to be some work toward a sustainable economy. at the end of the day, it is ordinary objects that are paying the price. this dream on out is there

9:35 am
will california become the new australia? will intensive agriculture monopolized this resource and will small farmers disappear, sacrificed in the name of water profitability, wool streets you cree people's, been fighting over water since white people set foot in this valley. it's our life . if we don't have water, we don't have an economy and we, we don't have anything. you have the growers, you have the packers, you have the shippers, you have the manufacturers, but it's all based on what comes up out of the ground. and you need water for that historically, the central valley has been the ocean that supplies the whole country with fruits and vegetables considered of national security. it ensures food independence for
9:36 am
the united states. but over the past decade, the crops have changed. solidly, so disappeared. the valley has become an aman to producing machine. as in australia, the financial i, zation of water is transforming landscapes and encouraging monoculture. i can remember cuz i grew up in the valley in driving up and down and all over the place that you had. i'm much smaller plots of land and farms and a lot more alfalfa and cotton, especially cotton. and now you have, you know, just as far as the i can see in some areas, almon trees,
9:37 am
as the price of water increases and it becomes more valuable than the land and more valuable than the production of the land. well, you have a commodity. it's valuable somewhere. if you can't use it on the land, what else might you be able to do with farm it to sell to know where water is a new crop? yes, hunter is. what are some, is probably the most valuable crop in the central valley right now. it's more valuable than oil. ah. so what is blue gold? what to replace black go here?
9:38 am
don't or bit of it is what's known as a water. got a reference to the 1000000000 as of yesterday to control deal markets i knew were l a was and you were san francisco was this central valley is something that was foreign to me. and after i bought the land was about 4000 acres. i bought it, bought it for $270000.00 and had today's value had about $12000000.00 with the water rights. and today's value, maybe more ab, a lot of people feel that john, that of it is not a farmer that he is a water farmer that he buys these lands and gets himself involved in the stuff in
9:39 am
order to get control of the ground water. my strategy has always been that it's not so much the land, but it's the water and maybe i was a little bit early. maybe i wasn't. how much have you invested in all these? so infrastructures i will say in the hundreds of millions. so that's, that's what i have invested hundreds of millions of dollars. yes sir. does it worth it? yes, absolutely. ah . john vacovich is not afraid of soaring water prices. you know, the arrival of wall street investors. for him. the danger lies elsewhere. blue.
9:40 am
ah . cities will always get the politics, are there, the money is there, they can increase the cost of water so that the farmers can pay for with they're going to steal it by making it so expensive that the farmer is at their mercy. that the fear is it's all going to go to allay cars. ela has all the money that's. that's the fear member m w d, the metropolitan water district, which is the big gorilla down south. they have millions of customers where you could spread the cost out. it's not going to affect the individual customer
9:41 am
water is money, it's power and it's money, and it's becoming more and more and more valuable, almost daily. and the land of free enterprise water competition is 5th city against countryside ecologists against farmers. some people already preparing to become water bankers, welcoming those who wish to stock their reserves before using oh, reselling them according to market prices. so my drop as i set up as a sponge to be able to capture as much water available when it's here. and then we have the luxury, when the surface water is not available,
9:42 am
we can fall back upon the stored water in the ground water bases semi tropic overseas canals. we pay for the canals or maintain the canals. we built the canals. so if another layer of a land owner wants to actually have access to my canal and move water supply they acquired, we're going to pay for all as a seller, if it's more interesting to sell water to cities than to farmers. yeah, you're probably have a higher ability to sell water to cities, but then good worth of cities getting their food supply or the import the soup food supply from outside the state outside the country. or they want to have a local food supply. like having the natural stream system near their home, whereas words, the value is at fishes of farms is that people does really at the end. the day is the, the hard issue for us to decide where is the best use for water supply and then
9:43 am
varies based upon where you are. the 20th century economy centered around the world. trade nowadays was look to shape the 21st century. we have seen financial investors and others come in and look at ways to take advantage of that. their goal is to get in before the market elevates the price of water. and in some cases i've heard that they've done it and how you look at that. you know, there are some that fill that, that's kind of exporting the system, but you know, there's nothing that we can do to prevent it may not like it, but that's just, that's the way our system. that's what capitalism setup to accommodate. as you met
9:44 am
them personally. no news doesn't make sense. should we be trading water? i think we're past that question. we. we are trading water in this country and 4 people are moving to the west. may need water. ah, just at the beginning of this water revolution, water, financial revolution, the, you can't let the market be the only decider of how water's allocated. price can't be the only way you distribute water. because then you'll have rich people with big swimming pools and poor people who are dead done. they get it. well, what is the her yet?
9:45 am
vonny my mom would have gone to the one. but i had an bombings, something about the young man that bonnie and the dentist little physical in that is that a global war to rush is accelerating privatization, competition profit, key words of the liberal doctrine. faced with this for it. one woman is standing up, mod bondo a canadian human rights act. ah, she has already won her 1st victory at the united nations in 2010. when the general assembly voted in favor of a resolution that recognized access to water as a universal rights line, it must be declared
9:46 am
a public resource that belongs equally. i was in the united nations up in the balcony. the day that that they voted and i thought we were going to lose. i had staff with me, they were crying. i said, don't worry, we're going to be back in 2 years or 5 years, no matter how long it takes. we're going to be back and we'll do it. and when they vote, they vote, they sit in their chairs and they vote electronically. so you know right away, so boom, a 122 countries voted in favor and 41. they abstained. they didn't have the nerve to oppose, even though they actually wanted to oppose among the nations that abstained, that they were australia, united states, and great britain. countries that have all chosen to turn water into a financial product. the human family took an evolutionary step forward at that point, and since then every country has ratified it's in one way or another it's, it's now universal. so he got it now he's got it now. mod barlow
9:47 am
may have won the battle, but she hasn't yet won the war. in stockholm and december 2018, the activist was invited by the nobel committee to continue her fight at a conference about the future of water. so we thought we focused on activism for a while to start us off. i'd like to ask more. barlow, gills with united nations calls, water scarcity, the scoured of the earth to truly guarantee the human right to water. we must protect it as a public trust and a commons, not a commodity to be put on the open market for sale like oil and gas. and we must challenge the current power structures and institutions that support an equal access to the planets. dwindling water supplies. our goal must be clean,
9:48 am
