I recently was reading an article about this out-of-control BP oil spill quagmire and the long lasting effects it will have on our environment. The article also went on to outline the dire drought situations that some countries are currently facing. In many countries there is an extremely limited amount of fresh water available, and oil spills and pollution are endangering this most precious resource.
When I was reading this article Mos Def's song "New World Water" immediately sprang into my mind! Mos definitely dropped some knowledge about the world's current water situation. BP, Exxon, Shell and other oil companies have been reporting record profits, even after their majorly destructive oil spills!? To quote Mighty Mos (from New World Water) "they're the type of cats that pollute the whole shoreline, then purify and sell it for a $1.25". If you haven't heard the song, you need to take a listen to it and get educated. Have you ever noticed that EVIAN is NAIVE spelled backwards! Let that one marinate on your brain for a minute.
