2020 #NoMore4Nestle National Boycott

The Issue

Nestle has been stealing water from our San Bernardino Mountains for decades, about 80 years.  Recently the US Forest Service gave Nestle a temporary permit after allowing them to extract water without a permit for all of these years with out sufficient consequences. The temporary permit allows them to do a self-study to determine if the water they are taking from our community is impacting the eco-system.  Of course it is!  When the rest of our community was reducing our water usage due to drought, Nestle increased their usage & took even more water out of the mountain at Strawberry Creek.  The US Forest Service has not done an adequate job of protecting the water here in our mountains because they also get grant funds for their volunteer forestry programs from Nestle linked sources.  It is time for our communities to stand up and stand together to DEMAND #Not1MoreDrop of our precious water be given to this evil corporate giant.  We MUST get this boycott from a local level to a national level in order to make an impact on Nestle.  Previous boycotts have failed to accomplish this so we are turning to our Indigenous Community to help raise the awareness, and sound the drums for a #NestleNationalBoycott ! We are calling upon all #WaterProtectors #EarthDefenders and #IndigenousWarriors to help #DefendSacredWater here and around the globe from the #SameVillians that have extracted water from many of our communities and ultimately from #IndigenousLands across #TurtleIsland.  #EnoughIsEnough #NoMore4Nestle #BoycottNestle2020 #MotherEarthRising #IndigenousDRUM
