Water giant Danone has spent decades pumping water out from under an Indigenous Mexican community without its consent.
Now their rivers are drying up. They can hardly water their crops. People are thirsty.
Yet Danone spends millions branding itself as a sustainable water company. It's up to us to expose them -- and shame Danone into leaving this region for good.
In just 2 weeks, the company will gather its investors to celebrate the company's success...and profits. This is our chance. With your help, our team is ready to run surveys in crucial Danone markets asking consumers what they think about the company stealing water -- and to turn up at the event as special guests of Danone shareholders (your fellow Ekō members!) to present the findings straight to execs...and the media.
Will you chip in to spoil Danone's party and get justice for the tiny community fighting this $37 billion mega-corporation?
--
Every extra dollar we raise will be used to fight this kind of corporate exploitation of people and planet.
