Doors open at 6:30 with libations available from Pagosa Brewing Company. All proceeds benefit the Southwest Organization for Sustainability and the Pagosa Farmer’s Market. Space is limited so please arrive early.   “Blue Gold: World Water Wars” shows why and how the world’s water supply is disappearing, why we should be concerned, how governments and corporations (the line is blurry) are exploiting it, and how we can fix this whole fiasco. Global warming is an issue of “how” we live, the water crisis is an issue of “if” we live. Based on the ground-breaking book by Maude Barlow and Tony Clarke, Executive Produced by Mark Achbar (The Corporation) and Si Litvinoff (The Man Who Fell to Earth), narrated by Malcolm McDowell, BLUE GOLD: WORLD WATER WARS sheds light on the world’s rapidly approaching water crisis and suggests that wars of the future will be fought over water, as they today over oil, as the source of all life enters the global marketplace and political arena. This international award-winning film follows various examples of people fighting back against the powers that be: from grade school protests to court cases to revolutions. As the threats of drought and death loom, the film finds people willing to risk everything for their right to water, their right to survive. Past civilizations have collapsed from poor water management. Can the human race survive? As a headwaters locale Pagosa Springs should set the standard that all downstream users should mimic. If push comes to shove and Los Angeles and Phoenix run out of water, our secure water supply might not be so secure any more. This is not an environmental film, but rather it serves as a call to action. It proposes “the blue alternative,” which is a system of simple ideas that can be used to help rainwater get back into the ground and heal the disrupted natural hydrologic cycle.   The film runs 90 minutes.
