Waconomics: Redefining Water's Role in Our Economy, Paperback/Michael Zitron

Descriere

Water is in everything, connecting us all in one way or another, including our family's wealth and health. But here's the problem: water's value went missing from the economy when the EPA came on the scene in the 1970s. The government gave water a much higher value, but it never disclosed that value to the American people. As a result, we have experienced water inflation ever since. Over time that hidden inflation placed a new burden on the financial dreams of the nation. The only way to close that gap and mitigate the rising seas and shrinking freshwater supplies is to put water back in our money. Ultimately we only have two choices on how the price of water will rise in our future: on our terms or someone else's. Will we invest in our children and grandchildren through water, or pay tolls to corporations for it? Waconomics offers domestic and global solutions for citizens, corporations, and governments alike. We can save the American dream with water PROMISE Every dollar that Waconomics returns in profit directly goes to Water M.
