4:08 am
just like oil markets. water falls from the sky, therefore it should be fray. whenever i hear that i always say diamonds occur in nature and they're not for me. it's a financial product like any other financial product, a company way around on my provider to $95.00 like you just did the beginning of this water financial revolution. what about the guy that can't afford it? that guy still needs water. in the blue gold rush has begun to can anyone structure the human right to water means that it's not a charity. it's an issue of justice. this is the issue of our time. this is the
4:09 am
crisis of our time with financial pressure on human mobilization. rising, the battle oval water has already begun. who will come out on top of the planet? the people on the markets. you got the hot weather was bad this weekend, just wait until tomorrow. the 5th day of our he wave is expected to be incredibly uncomfortable. and potentially dangerous, and the merely very hot today, it's moving in from the mid west where they've been dealing with the sweltering heat. and now that it's moving here to the east coast, they could stick around for several days, becoming a full blown make more than a commodity listed on the stock bet on its price. and if wall street replicates the australian model ah humbling young and well st. money in my need, ever since the subprime crisis causing economic ruin for countries and individuals
4:10 am
. the financial giants have been looking for new areas to invest in. o and june, 20 o 8, the investment bank, goldman sachs, stotts to one is water. the new oil the fun invites his top clients to take a bath on the future. goldman sachs, the conference. that was me. i used to work at goldman sachs in 2008. that was a conference that i held there is this absolute intuitive appeal that says population growth is outstripping, the water supply. that must mean companies are engaged in the water business. are a sure thank that there can't mess. they get mesmerized by these megatron appeals in water is water. the next oil,
4:11 am
we set it up as a question and then mostly dismissed it. water does not have sophisticated trading market and has no substitutes. that questions not going to go away. we're just probably not ready for it yet. ah, goldman sachs and it's investors must wait. public opinion is not ready yet. it's not until 2015 and the international climate change conference in paris that the well leaders finally declare a state of emergency. we are tier react now. replace on short term interest behind the air that our young people will breathe in the food that they will eat in the water that they will drink and the hopes and dreams that
4:12 am
sustain their lives. then we won't be too late for them. in the developed world for the last 100 years, we haven't had to think about our water or worry about our water. it's been essentially unlimited wherever we want it whenever we want it. it's been really inexpensive. no one thinks about their water bill. they don't say, oh, take a shorter shower, the water is too expensive. i think that era is over climate change is going to have a huge impact on water availability around the world. the same amount of water is going to be available in the big picture, but we don't live in the big picture. we live in a specific place. we raise our food in a specific place. and so the movement of that water will have a dramatic impact on how cities manage their water and how we are able to grow food
4:13 am
to feed every the climate emergency demands radical changes. wall street brim box on its mission city group, one of the largest us banks, publishes a report announcing the in the free water if you're wasting water on the tri gant ex gail and certain regents ike california, southern spain. b are seeing scarcity of water, of sometimes extreme degrees. i maybe have had thank us fill this water, sailing to barcelona. ah, there is no alternative to pricing water properly. and making people
4:14 am
realize that every time they take a sip of water, there is an opportunity cost and they feel within their wallet. how else are you going to get people to use less? if you give it to them for free, ah, the dams is broken. the soft sounds of liberalism grow louder to celebrate the union of finance and water. yeah, go to she, acid markets, selling water derivatives, even the high frequency traders, the hedge funds would be co interested. so know. everybody sees this as an opportunity did will come. you question is just when and who will push it 1st and hardest and what would be their motivation in incoming
4:15 am
prophets while or so, you know, indirectly doing good for humanity. so it's the best of all possible worlds. what could be better? it's very amorro to tread water. my will to be immortal, to trade water. because what is life he pay for health care? just because it's life doesn't mean it cannot be priced ah. the last stage in the financial ation of bought the launch of a stock market index to buy some water prices. buy news that a stock exchange specialize in technology. this is the time that water has been reduced to an hour
4:16 am
with me. the man who came up with the equation works in central london as a form, a trade in a swiss bank. he launched the carbon markets where industrialists trade rise to pollute in the form of credit before he discovered water, water used to be free. in the l, but the world is changing is too much stress on the system and the most important commodity on earth can't be free forever.
4:17 am
if you wanted to put it into the creed scenario, if you don't control it and use it properly, what will the rhetoric the happen? he says that the cache will have it. and those about the cache one texas launch. coogan is the sort of man who looks to the future in order to attract investors to find that he's joint forces with the top water expert in the united states. and i want to drive around and your dad's gonna just pull around to the side, mom in law, throw some hail, scoot way back up there. look like the grain. a cowboy living in idaho, and the western united states. the only man who knows the secrets of a market that was until now reserved for experts and inside of clay landry runs a company that has recorded every water transaction since the year. 2000. when
4:18 am
i got to call, it was unusual. it was a little out outside of our you know, our normal focus. i was intellectually curious. you know, from our standpoint it was relatively easy because we had the data on both. okay. we go get on their dinner now. why? because they like lots of food, just like you it isn't a reliable index to be clear where you're not buying water, you're buying the price of water stuff. so if you're not taking physical delivery of the water, so it's a little bit on the is a bit. yeah, it is a bet. were just betting whether the price is gonna be higher low. it's 6 months from now. so like i said, this is the condition on what the price. is it a speculation? i think we all are managing on what we think the future is going to look like.
4:19 am
hey, i want you to pick any of what is in free. nobody worry. we're all happy that's going back into the dark ages. i was in the car market 2006 to 2012. people told me like, what's his nonsense, a judge? not in the front page of the years. if what people are saying is coming, you better be on top of your water situation, where you're going to be without water. and what i'm doing is getting people's focus through financial instruments to see what is actually going on on the grab. it changes the work, the world of water as
4:20 am
in australia, both partners have gained the support of powerful local environmental organizations . finances seem to be winning the environmentalists over oh oh, i i see more nonprofit organizations forming to participate in that market. and again, looking at ways to acquire water in areas where it's needed for stream flow either for fishery benefit,
4:21 am
water quality benefit or some other type of habitat protection. the environmental water trade to make us about a quarter of the market. is it too late to stuff a financial take of a bed on water? heat wave is letting up in the midwest and northeast and temperatures are rising to dangerous levels in the west, excessive heat watches and warnings are posted tonight and parts of california. at the same time, nearly 4 dillard wildfires are burning across the west. they learn to california has built up its wealth one through water here the reserves are in the north, whilst the cities and farms are in the south. oh, in order to domesticate. ringback this resource, a huge canal having built tumor, transporting billions of gallons of water. climbing over the mountains,
4:22 am
irrigating the fertile valleys before supplying the people of los angeles. the california aqueduct is the essential artery that ensures the life and prosperity of 40000000 p e. but climate change threatens the california dream. california doesn't charge farmers for water. if they drill a well and pop out of the ground, they can pump as much as they want. whenever they want. not only is there no charge, no one even keeps track of how much water they use. and during the last drought, which was just a year and a half ago, some of the farmers in the central valley of california. we're pumping so hard that the ground was falling,
4:23 am
the ground was collapsing by an inch among mm . lots of water left so much water right down there. so today i'm declaring a drought emergency in the state of california. ah, reco drugs and disastrous wildfire. california has been catapulted into the world of extreme weather phenomenon. the father, he's supposed to be safe in the middle of the last drought. california passed a really important law that's gonna change water use in the state forever. it may change what gets grown in california. it may change who succeeds and who fails.
4:24 am
under pressure from environmentalists, the governor is forced to vote in a new little cold sigma which limits underground water extraction. from now california and farmers and cities will be entitled to a specific water quote based on their consumption. a revolution in the land of the free sigma or the sustainable ground water management act. initially, i think was viewed with fear and trepidation. i think people recognize that it was a necessary piece of legislation, just like balancing your checkbook for your home or you can't live by writing checks for more money than you have. and so i think collectively the bally is endorsed it and supports the idea of sustainability. we get somewhere in bakersfield or the local water agency has decided to create a stock exchange to allow pharmacy to buy and sell that quotas. now those 210 years
4:25 am
after australia in california is coming around to the concept of watermark rates in and you may be your july and you say, wow, based on this projection, i'm going to have a supply surplus. you may decide, you know, i'm going to manage that. i'm going to go into the market and make that available and maybe generate some additional economic value. so if it falls through afterwards, we hit confirm, and it falls through. they didn't pay or they didn't, you know, it doesn't work out. how do we let you know again that i want to take my water back, you know, to be, you can i that once you hit confirm, as far as the district is concerned, the transaction is complete. and there's, there's going to be some growing pains, and certainly it's not going to be perfect every time, but we're trying to structure something that seems straightforward. some of the people, the wheels were beginning to turn and they were thinking, you know, can i turn this to my advantage? is there a way for me to generate additional value? and i think though, just the word market invokes and people a sense of,
4:26 am
is there an opportunity, can i somehow be advantaged by participating? and that's by far the, the most common reaction that i have when people hear that, you know, we're creating a market for water. i think they view it as an opportunity contract with you probably are not a platform provider. i don't have skin in the game in terms of your bottom line here. again, environmentalists are at the forefront encouraging the establishment of these markets. so, you know, we're here because we, we see it as an important tool for flexibility as folks are dealing with more and more scarcity under sigma and in a climate change in general. so we've been talking to eric for some time since this is ground 0 for ground. what are overdraft? it would be great to actually experiment with how water training can benefit this region. the valley here is definitely ground 0, but there's groups in sonoma, there's groups in eastern truly madera,
4:27 am
fox canyon. everyone probably noon and oh sorry, my name is christy. about it and i work, i thought you were i'm and in a very surprise of the through environment or a pro market. i was to initially, i think, you know, after we had a chance to talk and understand what their interest were and recognize that we were very much aligned, these transactions have to be evaluated not just from a financial standpoint, but we also have to take into account environmental impacts, water quality issues, all the things that they're concerned about. and so it's good to have their input and their vision. and so that, that answers your 1st question. i mean, we don't know right now we're just kind of trying to project into the future. would you have imagined that situation before? no, this is i think taken many of us by surprise 4 or 5 years ago. this would not have been possible why supply has been constrained by definition of sustainability. and
4:28 am
so the market i think is necessary. ah. will california become the new australia will intensive agriculture monopolized this resource and will small farmers disappear, sacrificed in the name of water profitability wolf street, new creek are busy. military control receives requests for help from areas more numerous than the pens to write them all down with the military decide to send a helicopter to carry aid out to washington. so it's one of the many earthquake villages high up in the mountains of a remote part of seldom took here. everybody. oh, when we get that, we will still climb survivors, paypal alive, payables that help unload this stuff and get help to the people who need is the
4:29 am
most. i think what landing it looks like. all of them very see. now here we are. people that made it a very taking the boxes with the turmoil of nature may have conspired against people of quake sounds. but the a definite has let some light through the very dark clouds on the horizon. too often of con, astonished, portray, through the prism of war. but there were many of canister thanks to the brave individuals who risk their lives to protect it from destruction. an extraordinary film, archives spanning for decades, reveals the forgotten truths of the country's modern history. the forbidden real
4:30 am
part 3, the rise of the missouri dean honors jessia bold and i'm told stories from asia and the pacific on al jazeera. from the al jazeera london broker, sent a compensation. large cannot be erased a bye bye with no have no indication what mattered in all was to be radical. how can the thing that's radical be for say, one of highway and a nice couple is not bother wanting to sell. know about the message studio b unscripted on our era. ah, hello, i'm down in jordan and joe with a tough stories here. and i'll just say are the international criminal court at the
4:31 am
hague as issued an arrest warrant for russian president vladimir putin. the i, c. c said it's in connection with allegations of war crimes and ukraine. criminal. that's called a move outragious and unacceptable. ukraine. president flooding has lensky has welcome the i. c. c, announcement. stories. this is a historic decision that will lead to historic responsibility. the head of a terrorist state and another russian official have officially become suspects in a war crime. in the people taishan of ukrainian children, the illegal transfer of thousands of our children to the territory of a terrorist state in the criminal proceedings being investigated by our law enforcement officers. more than 16000 cases of force deportation of ukrainian children by the occupier of already been recorded. but the real full number of people tease may be much higher. that's when a fresh fell off of global banking stocks on friday, despite support shown by big us lenders, a smaller rival, 1st republic bank ratings agency. moody's downgraded the bank credit rating. on
4:32 am
friday, us president joe biden was calling for congress to impose tough a punishment on bank executive. the parent company of silicon valley bank, a solve a bankruptcy protection, with much of the tech focus company already under the control of regulators. it comes a week after a search of withdrawals triggered the biggest bank collapse since the financial crisis. why police have confronted angry protest as in paris for a 2nd day. a violent demonstrations outside parliament against pension reforms comes a day out of the government bypass parliament push through a plan to raise the retirement age from $62.00 to $64.00 thirty's, president rep typo and says he will now support finland's bid to join nato. it happened after his meeting with finished president, sal iniesta in ankara. the swedish foreign minister, though says anchors decision to only ratify finland's bid is regrettable odo and said the turkish parliament was again ratified helsinki. authorities in malawi are
4:33 am
coming to grips with a scale of destruction from cycling freddie at least 400 people have died in the region, and tens of thousands have been displaced by flooding. survivors of struggling with food shortages and aid is slow to reach many areas. so those are the headlines and he's continues here on al jazeera, often lots of water station. thanks for watching bye. for now. hey, ah,
4:34 am
ah. will california become the new australia will intensive agriculture monopolized this resource and will small farmers disappear, sacrificed in the name of water profitability. wall street, you cree people than fighting over
4:35 am
water since white people set foot in this valley? it's our life. if we don't have water, we don't have an economy and we, we don't have anything. you have the growers, you have the packers, you have the shippers, you have the manufacturers, but it's all based on what comes up out of the ground and you need water for that. ah, historically the central valley has been the orchard that supplies the whole country with fruits and vegetables considered of national security. it ensures food dependence for the united states. but over the past decade, the crops have changed. solidly so disappeared. the valley has become an armed producing machine. as in australia, the financial i, zation of water is transforming landscapes and encouraging monoculture.
4:36 am
i can remember cuz i grew up in the valley in driving up and down and all over the place that you had a much smaller plots of land and farms and a lot more alfalfa and cotton, especially cotton. and now you have, you know, just as far as the i can see in some areas, almon trees, as the price of water increases and it becomes more valuable than the land and more valuable than the production of the land. well, you have a commodity. it's valuable somewhere. if you can't use it on the land, what else might you be able to do with farm it to sell? he knew where water is a new crop. yes,
4:37 am
hunter is. what ours is probably the most valuable crop in the central alley right now. it's more valuable than oil. ah, so what is blue gold? what to replace black go? the owner bit of it is what's known as a water guy and a reference to the 1000000000 as of yesterday. who controlled deal and markets
4:38 am
i knew were l a was i knew were san francisco was this central valley is something that was foreign to me. and after i bought the land, i was about 4000 acres. i bought it, bought it for $270000.00 and it had today's value had $12000000.00 with the water rights. and today's value may be more ab. a lot of people feel that john, that of it. he's not a farmer that he is a water farmer that he buys these lands and gets himself involved in the stuff in order to get control of the ground water. my strategy has always been that it's not so much the land, but it's the water. and maybe i was a little bit early and maybe i wasn't. how much have you invested in all these so infrastructures i will say in the hundreds of millions. so
4:39 am
that's, that's what i have invested hundreds of millions of dollars. yes sir. does it worth it? yes, absolutely. ah, john vacovich is not afraid of soaring water prices, nor the arrival of wall street investors. for him, the danger lies elsewhere with cities will always get one. the politics are there, the money is there. they can increase the cost of water so that the farmers can't pay for in there is
4:40 am
steal it by making it so expensive that the farmer is at their mercy. that the fear is, it's all going to go to allay cars. ela has all the money in for that's, that's the fear. remember m w d, the metropolitan water district, which is the big gorilla down south. they have millions of customers where you could spread the cost out. it's not going to affect the individual customer. water is money, it's power and it's money and it's becoming more and more and more valuable. almost daily in the land of free enterprise bought a competition this city against countryside,
4:41 am
the colleges, against farmers, some people already preparing to become water bankers, welcoming those who wish to stock their reserves before using oh, reselling them according to market prices. ah. so my drop is i set up as a sponge to be able to capture as much water available when it's here. and then we have the luxury. when the surface water is not available, we can fall back upon the stored water in the ground water bases. so my tropic owns these canals, we pay for the canals, we maintain the canals, we built the canals. so if another layer of a land owner wants to actually have access to my canal to move water supply, they acquired. we're going to pay for all
4:42 am
as a seller, if it's more interesting to sell water to cities than to farmers. yeah. you're probably have a higher ability to sell water to cities. but then get worth of cities getting their food supply or the import the soup food supply from outside the state outside the country. or they want to have a local food supply. like having the natural stream system near their home. whereas words, the value is at fishes of farms is that people does really at the end of the day is the, the hard issue for us to decide where is the best use from water supply and then varies based upon where you are the 20th century economy centered around the world trade nowadays, water look said to shape the 21st century. we
4:43 am
have seen financial investors and others come in and look at ways to take advantage of that. their goal is to get in before the market elevates the price of water. and in some cases, i've heard that they've done it and how you look at that, you know, there are some that feel that that's kind of exporting the system. but you know, there's nothing that we can do to prevent. it may not like it, but that's just, that's the way our system. that's what capitalism is set up to accommodate. you met them personally. know me. ah, does it make sense? should we be trading water? i think we're past that question. we. we are trading water in this country, and 4 people are moving to the west. may need water. ah,
4:44 am
just at the beginning of this water revolution, water, financial revolution. the, you can't let the market be the only decider of how water's allocated. price can't be the only way you distribute water, because then you'll have rich people with big swing pools and poor people who are dead. i don't think it is the who yet volunteer. i'm a professor that have gone to the one that has been done. bonnie's thompson with bonnie and then jennifer physical and that is that a global war to rush is accelerating privatization. competition profit, key words of the liberal doctrine. faced
4:45 am
with this for it. one woman is standing up, mod bondo, a canadian human rights activist. ah, she has already won her 1st victory at the united nations in 2010. when the general assembly voted in favor of a resolution that recognized access to water as a universal rights line, it must be declared a public resource that belongs equally. i was in the united nations, up in the balcony, the day that that they voted and i thought we were going to lose. i had staff with me, they were crying. i said, don't worry, we're going to be back in 2 years or 5 years, no matter how long it takes, we're going to be back and we'll do it. and when they vote, they vote, they sit in their chairs and they vote electronically. so you know right away, so boom, a 122 countries voted in favor and 41. they abstained. they didn't have the nerve
4:46 am
to oppose, even though they actually wanted to oppose among the nations that abstain that they were australia, united states and great britain. countries that have all chosen to turn water into a financial product. the human family took an evolutionary step forward at that point. and since then, every country has ratified it's in one way or another it's, it's now universal. so you got it. now you got it. now, mod barlow may have won the battle, but she hasn't yet won the war. in stockholm and december 2018, the activist was invited by the nobel committee to continue her fight at a conference about the future of water. so we thought we focused on activism for a while to start us off. i'd like to ask more. barlow, give us united
4:47 am
nations calls water scarcity the scoured of the earth to truly guarantee the human right to water. we must protect it as a public trust and a commons, not a commodity to be put on the open market for sale like oil and gas. and we must challenge the current power structures and institutions that support unequal access to the planets. dwindling water supplies. our goal must be clean, affordable, accessible, public water for all, for everywhere, for all time. is it the end of cheap and free water, while the corporations end city group and others wanted to be the end of free and cheap water? that's their argument. they're saying, oh yes, it's
4:48 am
a human right because they can't fight that anymore because everybody says ear, awful person, if you, if you deny it, right? so, oh yes, as to human right. but the end of free and cheap water. when they say it's got to be a commodity, it's because they know that the scarcer it becomes in a world where you desperately need water there's, there's gold, it's called, it's blue gold. in stockholm mod, barlow appears as the grain of sand capable of bringing the water market machinery to a halt. there an awful lot of people in elite circles and let's face it, the no bells, pretty elite that believe that the best thing to do for what the water crisis is commodified put it on the open market like well and gas and see what see where it goes from there, right? so i had, for me, it represented a breakthrough in arm in getting our message out that we have to see water as a human, right. as a public trust and something that belongs to everyone. that's our goal. it's
4:49 am
