Drought in California

California is facing a drought of historic proportions, and while individuals are being forced to reduce their water usage, Nestlé is bottling the scarce resource straight from the heart of California's drought and selling it for profit.

Nestlé -- who extracts water from California for its Arrowhead and Pure Life brands -- is bottling from at least a dozen natural springs throughout California, including one located on a Native American reservation in one of the most drought-stricken areas of the state, free from oversight by local water agencies.

Click here to sign a petition to tell the California Water Resources Board to shut down Nestlé's bottling operations during the fourth year of one of the worst droughts in California history.
