Summary

The only book to combine environmental victories in the sustainable-use movement with hands-on, participatory options for those who live in the country and the city. This is not just a 'how-to', but also a 'what-to' book. From people building protest villages atop dams in Thailand to activist entrepreneurs in Mexico and Africa, Notes from the Water Underground gives voice to the water warriors battling for a sane relationship to the most essential shared resource.
