TeleTwinTowers.org presents Water World, a 9 day, 216 hour, multi-media exploration highlighting humanity's connection with water. The world's fresh water supply is running out. Today 50% of Earth's rivers are drying up & polluted to toxicity. 1 in 3 human beings lack access to clean, fresh water. Privatization is on the rise. No water no life. We must change our ways or face a dry future where wars over water plague the planet and only the rich can afford to drink. WATER WORLD is dedicated to water as a human need, a right without which we cannot survive. Coming together for the Water Water festival individual artists & activists seek to change the ways we treat this precious resource and sustain a consciousness of appreciation and celebration.
