Coca-Cola y el Agua - Una Relación Insostenible [India]

Como parte de los principales preconizadores globales de la no sostenibilidad del uso del agua, el patrocino de Coca-Cola [del Foro Mundial del Agua] pone en entredicho la misma credibilidad del Foro...En ningún sitio, el flagrante desprecio por el agua y por las comunidades...es más evidente que en India...Las plantas embotelladoras de Coca-Cola han afectado dramáticamente tanto la cantidad como la calidad de los recursos de agua subterránea...dificultándole a las comunidades aún más el acceso al agua...De manera indiscriminada, la compañía ha descargado...aguas desechadas en los campos vecinos, contaminando gravemente el resto del agua subterránea y también los suelos...Miles de granjeros en toda India luchan por sobrevivir debido a cosechas malogradas como resultado del faltante de agua creado por Coca-Cola.
