You have the right to know what’s in your water



Industry’s unfettered disposal of toxic materials and byproducts into our water supply plays a huge role in the growing water crisis. In the Philippines alone, chemical pollution is quickly taking its toll on our limited supply of fresh water.

It’s a horrifying thought that every day hundreds of thousands of chemicals are being released into our rivers exposing us to these chemicals without our knowledge and consent.

You have the right to know what’s in your water.

Today we are calling on people like you to join us in raising the alarm for government action to enforce concrete and effective measures to protect water quality, beginning with a policy that will openly disclose hazardous chemical use of factories.

The public's right to know is essential to any effective public participation, good governance and sustainable business because it allows the public to know more about products, projects or activities that may adversely affect their health and environment.

Add your voice to the growing chorus of Filipinos who want clean and safe water.

Stop water pollution >>
