Deadly wildfires have been blazing through the entire Northwest United States for weeks

Friend,

Oregon is on fire.

Deadly wildfires have been blazing through the entire Northwest United States for weeks. Over 1.1 million acres are burning, and already, dozens of homes have been destroyed. Firefighting resources are stretched thin — and the National Guard has even been deployed.

And yet, amidst all this destruction, Nestlé is still angling to bottle Oregon's fresh water and sell it for profit. Unbelievable.

With Oregon burning, we urgently need more people to speak out against Nestle. Will you help me raise the profile of this important issue by sharing on social media?

Dear Friends,

I just signed the petition "Stop Nestlé from sucking my state dry" and wanted to ask if you could add your name too.

This campaign means a lot to me and the more support we can get behind it, the better chance we have of succeeding. You can read more and sign the petition here:
