Rice University Environmental Club, Houston Tomorrow, Transition Houston, and the Emerging Professionals of the Houston USGBC present:
** Blue Gold: World Water Wars**
Based on the ground-breaking book by Maude Barlow and Tony Clarke, BLUE GOLD: WORLD WATER WARS sheds light on the world’s rapidly approaching water crisis and suggests that wars of the future will be fought over water, as they today over oil, as the source of all life enters the global marketplace and political arena.
Following the movie, we will highlight local non-profit, Living Water International that currently works on solving the world-wide water issue.
