The Weather Channel just announced that it will be peddling water bottles
and providing biased “news” coverage for BlueTriton.
Act now to stop this dangerous and greedy corporate partnership.

John,
BlueTriton’s water pumping and bottling operations are worsening drought
conditions that lead to wildfires.
And now it’s teaming up with The Weather Channel to try to clean up its
image.
The new multi-year deal includes commercials for BlueTriton bottled water
during deadly heat waves, as well as reporting from meteorologists who
will simply churn out Blue Triton's spin about its sustainability efforts.
We can't let the Weather Channel help BlueTriton greenwash its image, when
the truth is this greedy corporation is fueling the drought.
[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition to demand that The Weather Channel cancel its
partnership with BlueTriton.
While Californians have been suffering through extreme drought conditions,
worsening wildfire seasons, and water usage restrictions, BlueTriton has
continued to pump out over 50 million gallons of water each year from the
state’s San Bernardino National Forest.
A wildfire in San Bernardino County burned 800 acres in less than 48 hours
last year due to hot weather, high winds, and extremely dry conditions.
BlueTriton’s corporate greed is making every person, animal, and
hundred-year-old tree in the area even more vulnerable to dangerous
wildfires.
And if disaster strikes this year, The Weather Channel could wind up
peddling BlueTriton’s water bottles to people during a wildfire that might
have been prevented had BlueTriton not taken water out of the area in the
first place.

dangerous water theft.
