April 25, 2008 (LPAC)--The Worldwide Fund for Nature (WWF) wants to take your water away. The WWF has established a "Global Freshwater Programme" dedicated to "protecting" water from any human intervention. That is, they are out to kill you, Hitler style. The program's self-proclaimed mission is to prevent construction of any new water management programs globally, and reverse those already built; stop desalination (the "new dams" of today); shift irrigation strategies to "conserving" water; and discourage water use by turning control over water to the "markets" --i.e., to the WWF oligarchs-- so that water costs too much for human beings to use. They are even proposing establishing a market for using or trading "water allocation rights."
Lyndon LaRouche told you: if you want to eat, or have water to drink, join him in crushing this genocidal organization.
These fellows are insane. The WWF Freshwater Program's "Dam Project" whines, that "for reasons of hydropower, river navigation, irrigation, and flood protection, rivers have been dammed, straightened, deepened, and cut off from the natural floodplains. The water from an entire river basin is sometimes diverted to a neighbouring river basin.
"Such massive engineering schemes," they say, "cause irreparable ecological damage, by disrupting the natural flooding cycles, reducing flows, draining wetlands, and inundating riparian habitats, and resulting in the destruction of species, the intensification of floods, and a threat to livelihoods in the long term."

They are out to prevent anyone from producing water, in this time of global water scarcity, either. In June 2007, the program issued a 52-page attack on seawater desalination ("Making Water. Desalination: Option or Distraction For A Thirsty World?"). As Sergey Moroz of WWF summarized their view the following July: "Building reservoirs, desalination plants, and river basin transfers shouldn't even be on the agenda until it can be proven that alternative measures have been exploited. Discussing supply-side measures like 'making water' in desalination plants diverts attention from cheaper and more environmentally-friendly alternatives, which are widely available."
What does that mean? Reducing "demand" for water, and that requires restricting farming. On July 18, 2007, the WWF, with the European Environmental Bureau, issued a statement attacking the "water-wasting farmers." Decrying the fact that 44% of all water extracted in Europe is used for farming, they call for market mechanisms to force "agricultural water-users" to pay "the full cost of their water."
