Nestlé is at the forefront of taking over a water supply and selling it back to the locals to enrich the corporation at the expense of the humans who live there
Water commodification is exactly what Nestlé is doing
What we need is regulation to stop them from doing that, not a different company selling and capturing the water. That's just more of the same thing which solves nothing.
Nestle gets all the water they want for a $200 permit. That's not water commodification. They sell bottled water, but that's also not commodification of water. Almost 0% of US water consumption comes from a plastic bottle, and you can't commodify a market with ~0% market share.
Your statement is false, what Nestlé does is literally the definition of commodification
Commodification definition:
the act or fact of turning something into an item that can be bought and sold:
The commodification of water means that access is available only to those who can pay.
They sell bottles filled with water, not everyone has access to tap water and Nestlé captures so much of a water source that locals don't have access to the freely available water that they did before.
Are you not aware that fresh water from wells depletes sources? The water table is limited.
You seem to be intentionally twisting the scenario in a disingenuous manner. Nestlé is selling water that was once free to a populace.
If they didn't have access to freely available water, it cannot be true that Nestle is selling water that was once free to the populace. Your assertions are contradictory.
>they didn't have access to freely available water
Please quote my comment where I stated this.
I don't believe you have attempted to comprehend my statements, nor have you read the article I posted and are just making baseless assertions to be contradictory.
