Today, we’re investigating a topic that we all need to survive, water. Without water, there would be no plant life, no forests, crops could not grow, livestock could not exist, so we’d have nothing to eat. The fact is, we as people consist of water. Theaverage adult human body is about 60% water.

Tragically, the world, with some 8,000,000,000 people, growing to 10,000,000,000 by the year 2050, is running out of water as we heat the planet to such an extent that glaciers and snowpack that feed mountain streams disappear.

We are draining ground water from aquifers to the point of no return, and we pollute sources of clean drinking water by using rivers and lakes as virtual industrial and residential sewers.

To discuss this vital issue impacting all of our lives, is Adrienne Esposito, Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Citizens Campaign for the Environment based in New York. Adrienne has been a long-time champion of water protection, public health, preventing pesticide use, ending plastic pollution and creating alternative energy sources.
