They call it ’blue gold.’ Around the world, demand for water is exploding. By 2050, at least one in four will live in a country suffering from water shortages - creating ideal conditions for a new market… Goldman Sachs, HSBC, UBS, Allianz, Deutsche Bank, BNP. Banks, investment funds, and hedge funds are all rushing to invest billions of euros in anything related to water. And when banks get involved in stuff, it’s never good news.

This is so unbelievable to turn water into a commodity I am so Fn angry and all they care about is making money for the shareholders. I hate the stock exchange market I never ever will buy shares. This is madness lunacy I hope it pours with rain so that these water barons make no money out of a natural resource. I never imagined water would become a commodity so that people would charge high prices to please greedy shareholders I hope they all drown. Poor garners losing their properties an awful thing to watch very distressing so unfair. You water barons hope you drown in water. Psychopaths all of you God bless Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

Buy land,leave city,make your own source of water.

i dont need diamonds to liv e but i need water to live.

Ultimately we are the cause of this greed. Without our excess consumption & waste, these greedy corporations wouldn't exist.

I hate these bankers lying lying lying... Diamonds are free if they are on your property or land, but who decides which land is who's...and you all polute all the land no matter who supposedly owns it.

I feel like i just saw multiple Satans

Captain planet warned us about this. It's not a financial product because you don't need a diamond to live

In the United States the privatization of power and water shot the price sky high. Water and power went from being a service to being a luxury with the idea of making them as profitable as possible and make people pay as much as they can possibly afford. Before tax payers were charged a fee that covered distribution but storage and exploration cost were carried by everyone. Now people are charged for everything even if taxpayers still pay for wells, reservoirs, canals and levees.

Very nice 👍🏻 thank you 🙏🏻

Here in the US, local cities, counties, and states have privatized water for yrs. In the part of Arizona I used yo live in, there was a Canadian company that owned the local water company. Until just 1 or 2 yrs ago when the city bought it & they have screwed it all up and mismanaged it and now are in debt because that puchase brought so much oversight into how the city does things, that now my non-profit rent is being increased. I rent a space from the city to supply assistance with needed comodity. They were ever so happy to get me in the space 10 yrs ago, but now I am being looked at as a cash cow.

There need to be lengthy prison terms for any one who charge a price for drinking water over what production (treatment) and distribution actually costs. The water is not property anyone has a right to charge for, only what is done to it to make it drinkable and to bring it to our homes. Yes the price will differ between next to a clean river or in the middle of a desert but that is as it should be because of actual costs, not water speculation. Why the Australian farmers do not use atmospheric condensators with solar panels with all the sun they have I do not understand, it is not more expensive than paying for water on the "market". There are more drinkable water in the air than all surface water combined, and the hotter it gets the more water the air can hold. It is just hard to get without the right equipment.

Texans say, Liquor is for drinking, water is for fighting." AZ has dibs on some water supplies, and citizens / residents cannot touch it. Where does it go?

Im 45 we in Utah always worried about our water bill. Very immoral.

"You pay for healthcare?" bruh, its not even a comparison! One can live without healthcare, but one cannot live without water!

They do realize climate is measured over a period of 30 years not one summer. Like we say in climatology “climate is what you expect, weather is what you get.” Its so funny that one hot summer and all the sudden the subtropics are now arid desert.

Survival of the fittest.

When something is underpriced - or free - it is wasted. Basically there should be a base (per person) that is free per day - that can't be saved or sold - to allow survival (not luxury) - beyond that, the market should set a price.

Water has a maximum sustainability price, because we can always desalinate the ocean. When technology perfects a cheaper solution such as microbial desalination, then the bottom will drop out of the water market.
