DESCRIPTION:"Thirst": Population growth, pollution, and scarcity are turning water into 
 “blue gold,” the oil of the 21st century.  Global corporations are 
 rushing to gain control of this dwindling natural resource, producing 
 intense conflict in the U.S. and worldwide where people are dying in 
 battles over control of water. Examining water conflicts on three 
 continents, "Thirst" shows that popular opposition to the privatization of 
 water sparks remarkable coalitions that cross partisan lines.  The 
 individual struggles of various communities raise the same profound 
 questions: Is water a human right for all people? Or is it a commodity to 
 be bought, sold, and traded in a global marketplace?   62 minutes, 2004.  
 Juliette Beck, Director of Water for All, will speak and lead an open 
 discussion after the film.  $5 - $10 suggested donation.  Sponsored by 
 Peninsula Peace and Justice Center, World Centric, and Peace Umbrella of 
 Unitarian Universalist Church of Palo Alto.  For more information:
