Salina builds a case against the growing privatization of the world's dwindling fresh water supply with an unflinching focus on politics, pollution, human rights, and the emergence of a domineering world water cartel. Interviews with scientists and activists intelligently reveal the rapidly building crisis, at both the global and human scale, and the film introduces many of the governmental and corporate culprits behind the water grab, while begging the question "CAN ANYONE REALLY OWN WATER?"Beyond identifying the problem, FLOW also gives viewers a look at the people and institutions providing practical solutions to the water crisis and those developing new technologies, which are fast becoming blueprints for a successful global and economic turnaround.*           *Source www.flowthefilm.com Watch the trailer here! http://www.flowthefilm.com/trailer   Did You Know?

Little did they know that when they would leave their home that morning, they were leaving with all they would have left at the end of the day - a backpack and the clothes on their backs. While Candy, a single father, went about his typical day as the Wall ISD janitor and his kids attended their classes, a young neighborhood child was playing with matches near their garage. These matches started the fire that destroyed every material possession the Sanchez family owned and led them to contact Aquafuzion's sister company, Kingdom Construction, who is rebuilding their own. Although his house was insured and a major portion of the expenses to build a new home were covered, he still faced the issue of acquiring new appliances and furniture to provide adequate living conditions for himself and his children on top of clothing and other basic needs. When Albert Bernal of Aquafuzion learned that his family desperately needed help to get back on thier feet, he made the decision on behalf of the company to donate $10,000 to go toward refurnishing their new home once construction was complete. The Sanchez family lost everything in a day, but thanks to everyone's hard work and each of our customers, Aquafuzion was able to give back and create positive change in our community. After all, the community is who make our business possible.                             Philanthropy Efforts 2009-09-15T17:59:49+00:00 http://www.aquafuzion.net/news/article/interview_with_news_station/ http://www.aquafuzion.net/news/article/interview_with_news_station/#When:20:14:14Z   Get the Flash Player to see this player.   News 2009-08-24T20:14:14+00:00 http://www.aquafuzion.net/news/article/platinum_ge_dealer/ http://www.aquafuzion.net/news/article/platinum_ge_dealer/#When:05:21:18Z Quality water from a trusted name GE, the innovator in water processing technology, has crafted the Pro Elite™ to the highest standards.
