In the midst of California's historic drought, Nestle Waters is the largest bottler of water in the world is drawing millions of gallons of water a year from the San Bernardino National Forest. Nestle's permit expired in 1988, at which point the Forest Service should have turned off the spigot.

The Center for Biological Diversity is a 501c3 nonprofit headquartered in Tucson, Arizona. At the Center, we believe that the welfare of human beings is deeply linked to nature — to the existence in our world of a vast diversity of wild animals and plants. Because diversity has intrinsic value, and because its loss impoverishes society, we work to secure a future for all species, great and small, hovering on the brink of extinction. We do so through science, law and creative media, with a focus on protecting the lands, waters and climate that species need to survive.

We want those who come after us to inherit a world where the wild is still alive.
