a company which deals in water. it's the headquarters of nestling the most powerful food and beverage company in the. atmosphere we believe that to have a long term business success you must simply famously create value for the shareholders and for that and be called if creating shared value and that is a fundamental principle behind the way we conduct business at nestle could put social responsibility. report is think is how it's going to ensure report so i think it's a good ballot to get this replaced. when it comes to water it is

a global ambassador he travels the world preaching cautious and careful use of his most precious commodity. he's a captain of big business committed to making money but also a man who speaks of social responsibility so i want to know more about that my first destination is the used to be. when mr lee is hoping the united nations to provide a u.n. refugee camp with drinking water. is one of the humanitarian projects which the company finances as part of its corporate social responsibility program. it's the lack of drinking water the global water problem which is also of paramount priority for the u.n. the water crisis is perhaps the most urgent ecological and human threat of our time in their recent world water development report twenty four agencies of the united nations confirmed that the global water crisis is getting worse and threatening millions of people every day they can't benefit the people for it p.o.p.o.

in a way it is possible for either the united nations board best to do it by itself. by having a bit know how far i've missed it with a company. with a few expertise so few in h.c.r. be able to assure access to pure water for the parents of south so people. this is the key to which we just referring it is nestle do it's home to some twenty thousand refugees from neighboring somalia. many of them have been here for more than twenty he is waiting for the cooling in the country to store. it. that.

i've been expecting something of a showcase project but instead refugees tell me there's a shortage of water. but you see the way down to the can sometimes we don't have water for two or three days. due to problems with the poor holes we can have you know what tricity we could and then also if then we have to wait for a specialist to repair the system and get to. the campus supplied by an underground water pipeline the going to being pumped from the valley some twenty kilometers away. nestle to find out the water supply system and according to peter brown that is committed to its long term operation. so the body of the local. people the time. given.

that. this is now running out of. the funding we. said that it is me. no. no no if. you do this you. did in two thousand that went into two thousand and two thousand and four they support it and this is. they say i don't know any more watering got the. nessus diminishment to the camp is finished but according to the company. website it's still continuing. to make sure that the water system can keep functioning.

so that the people of the region and. clean water for many years to the future. commitment or is the company's p.r. perhaps getting just a little too enthusiastic. the water companies are in this for one reason and that is profit and sometimes they connect up to a project like this for their marketing tools because we all over the world are criticizing them and they're trying to renewed their image in the world they don't stick with something unless it's profitable they are a big transnational competitive corporation and they will never stay with something for humanitarian reasons. from canada is an ambassador for water just like peter broderick. exempt that she's a consumer activist a winner of the alternative nobel prize and

a strong critic of nestle. nestle and. we've asked the company for an interview and was still waiting for a reply from the time being we can fill no need these pictures on the fringes of a media event. nestle is one of the most profitable companies ever annual turnover exceeds one hundred billion dollars it's the world's largest food and beverage multinational adored by investors big and small. more than a quarter of a million staff. and the chairman of the board is a man with a mission. to buy i've often wondered what is the most single important factor that could ensure a company continuing for another one hundred forty years and i always come to the

same conclusion water. when it comes to bottled water nestle is the undisputed well. the company has bought up many of its competitors and now owns more than seventy different brands the new alternative totals more than nine billion dollars. with a takeover. perrier nine hundred ninety two. spring joined the party. access to the lucrative beverage market in the usa. of course which is also very important which is what this image of our companies to be checking all over the constantly what are people thinking about this last brian said about mr responsibility as a corporate citizen. in burn switzerland i have an appointment with a senior nestlé manager and he chose the restaurant. will

nestle give us information about its water business. and an interview with peter brown back. the answer is no according to the nestle man it would be the wrong film at the wrong time. then he offers to commission from us a film about the global use of water in agriculture. above and beyond that the goal is to nestle will be closed to us worldwide. that means no cooperation from nestle from now on we can film peter brown bag only when he makes public appearances but that doesn't deter us so we travel to the country where the company sells most of its water. that's bringing water pumping station in the northeast of the usa.

for its poland spring brand nestlé pumps out a million liters of water every day. the tanker and thirty thousand liters of water for which nestle pays a private landowner just ten dogs. in front of heavy traffic most of. the water tankers carry up to twenty five thousand troops at. the time to mr spock now looking to. try. and offer and freiburg that supplies about a sixth of the water for poles from bali was the focus of attention today. our care for you want to stay with us right i want to freiburg if you take in millions or kill them to water out of one place they're asked to. that effect somewhere that's why you've invited freiburg residents to dump bottles of cold spring water

apply go like this hold back to where they don't belong here they don't have a right to be here and you are left to our laos. they don't have a right to come here and take the water. inside the nest and once to build a second pumping station it wants to pump double the quantity of water. but also some consideration the local authorities are refusing the company permission as a result nestle is now suing the town. this is truck access from denmark and that water source is something that is crucial to their growth here. it raises the question even more loudly who does the water belong to and if i have a house next to your house and i pump out of my my land where is the line where what i pump out from under my land is coming out from under yours the situation

right now is that the public has said no plan or said no the appeals court has said no and nestle says. so it would be appeal was filed i believe last week a week before. sealing inhabits the town. to c.-span a man in my opinion that is an absolute right when someone says they do no one to bowling operation in their community thus also that is something we must also understand the stand oh. this is the media leave us so we leave the media. by the same bush and secure the other party visible. for shoes that no one is asking with the guests that you deserve answers from it's all on politicking only on our t.v. . ok.

hi dave a crock of welcome you to ted your oliver jane it's a little while in the middle of the chesapeake bay and a virginia. county. pager all in the chesapeake bay probably one of the best areas in the fall for. this is an old picture of ten and your island before the channel was cut oh here. a way up there. as goal. right here are some of the headstones from graves that for you this is a fruit that's what we don't want happen to taint your all and we want to get some protection and make sure that we don't go into the chesapeake bay like uppers did in other communities.

wealthy british style. markets why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike's conjure for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into kinds a report on our. list and constantly needs new sources of water. here in the state of maine a home team of hydrogen interests is searching for a new springs for a company. mr knight requires water rights privately owned purchases whole areas outright. which

is what happened in the front a preacher. poland springs are nestle's would like to. tire area here and get all its mountain water and sell it all over the world for money regardless of what it does to the ecology they are very very students in dealing with. changing regulations or working within regulations. to meet the demands and the goals that they have if there was no. resistance to them coming to town there would be no office with a good labor policy giving away free coffee the funny part is they give away free water they're giving away a case of free water to the first fifty people every month that come in there and for me it's extremely ludicrous because that water is water that we get when we

turn our sink they use it up there and wash their hands. and flush their toilets with the same water. felling is bringing water. thank you bob that. in main opposition is growing many people are angry that nestle is making big money out of the water i meet up again with more bhalo. leslie is a water hunter they're a predator they're not interested in the sustainable use of ground water or this the springs that are the reverse of the springs that they use they're out for one thing and that is to make money and so they come into an area and they see the

water like water mining like a gold cup they come in they drain an aquifer until it's gone or when it's gone they move on they don't live there very seldom they don't have any connection to the place they're after profit they're predators water hunters looking for the last piro hotter in the world. in the small town of poland stands a kind of fairytale consuls it's a bottling plants dating from the here nineteen zero seven. the original spring now has little water rumor has it the spring ran dry a long time ago but the name has remained today poland spring is the top selling spring water in the usa for less lake a spa claim success in terms of turnout. today in the state of maine the rust free new clothes opening poland spring water the newest is this one built by nestle in kingfield one hundred twenty kilometers from the original spring. we want

to pay a visit the local media spokesperson said that all she had to do was inform head office. the. power. power back. on the barrier stays down just like the next man told us back in the swiss restaurant. my next destination is a wildlife preserve some two hundred kilometers south of cancun. here to the hydro geologists have been successful investors. but a small group of women are against next. i don't hear.

that over their water to the. kind of belief that was started. the reason i'm fighting for water preservation is we have a very large water rack were for here that we care very much about what happens to which nestle moved their way into it over three years ago without us knowing about it we noticed the wells were in place on this land and that's why we began the fight to maintain control of this my passion is we're in a battle of our life with nestle and we're trying to not have nestle come into our town with three. or.

the nets decided to put wealth in the ground they go down a certain number of feet and they let them monor ter the water levels in this area off the land puts or they have not requested a permit to extract they're only testing our area. well here we are we're still this is three years we've been tested in order to exploit commercially the massive reserves of water. is trying to find private land to the towns of shapley and. from there with months to pump water from the wildlife preserve and at the lowest possible price. in the towns around the preserve of nestle has now become a political issue yet. as a factor we cannot fight that company on any level playing field they didn't feel

it was necessary to hold a public hearing on this issue this is why local control is so important corporate america has the lights lobby for us they are they are they are drowning us out it is time for people to stand back up and speak to what they need to address what is right for their towns you live in the towns they don't they live overseas. it is a question of whether the normal water supply for the population should be privatized or not and there are two points of view. one i would call it an extreme point of view. is that supported by n.g.o.s choose. which insist on water being declared a public right. to make a kid. in other words as

a person you simply should have the right to have water. that's an extreme solution . so the other view is that water is a foodstuff. place and just like any food stuffs it should have a market value they want our water and they want our water for profit and what they're paying less and a penny a gallon is just outrageous and what happens is they come in and they come in again to these small rural area years where there is very limited government and they use their scare tactics and their billion dollar company and you can never beat them. nestle might be a wonderful company but i have not seen it we've tried to work with ness and back when you find out that nestle weaves their way into our community and the person that wrote our regulatory ordinance was recommended by nestle while the people

should be writing the regulatory ordinance it's our town that's where the tax payers so what we did was we met with a lectern officials and under the regulatory approach in the united states the regulatory approach we have ordinances in each town. and what those ordinances do the regulatory ordinance pretty much tells these companies or a small company or a large company what they can do in their limits and so forth but it only regulates them make that we cannot say no we don't want you in return you know that he said of course we know them very well and we have intense discussions with them the situation varies from country to country from city to city or as in the us from state to state. in several countries there are people who are very happy to see us building factories or connecting wells. in our cities and going on you know there's

there's discussion aboard whether or not we're interfering with the natural water flow rules. since the breakout an operation. to mislead green tankers to transport vehicle from just wildlife preserve. nestle's battle with the determined women of choppy and infield has not yet been decided. to follow the big water tankers to haul is made to the largest want to bottling factory in the wild. the water is pumped by nestlé from the area directly behind the factory. the other half is transported in tankas from pumping stations in the hinterland. for one time to load nestle pays ten dollars or even nothing. once bottle the

same water costs fifty thousand dollars when sold across the company as home spun a natural spring. in maine nestle pumps about as much water as that used by the entire agricultural sector throughout the state that's around three billion liters e.-m. and the figure is rising. back in switzerland we're at nestlé zte annual press conference for us the opportunity to film inside the company. i'm interested in

this latest new brand. aimed at winning over two. in developing countries it's. the press conference we are offered to san pellegrino and we tell water the new product carries the promising name pure life to your life brand for those who don't know ten years ago did not exist and it's an incredible story to go from zero to where we are today one of the top brands yes yes and one of the reasons we've been able to grow grow is we've been able to offer the consumer value good quality water and different parts of the world and it's been very well accepted we're looking to take that asset expand into more geography more parts of the world we think the growth will in fact continue it's a profitable brand for stew and it's a jewel that we have an opera folio and our plans are to continue to leverage it so i'm very optimistic about that brand. one. that's the

idea behind your life. to live is purified ground water and reached by an artificial blend of minute. it's a secret nestle recipe. it's produced locally in twenty seven countries on five continents. it tastes the same everything. mr pugh allies is now the top selling bottled water in the wild growing in double digits. the test market for the product was pakistan. russia has formally presented a proposal for the disarmament of syria's chemical arsenal latimer put in his personal appeal to the american public and political establishment to give negotiations a chance in war torn syria though tough questions remain primarily whether washington can we frame from its habit of using brute force.
