1) The Polaris Institute Inside the Bottle Campaign Team is producing Newsbytes on a regular basis. Here, we focus on two companies who were busy at the World Water Forum in Mexico City, attempting to influence global water policy. The new privatization mantra is 'community involvement', where a few local actors sit on committees and are forced to become the collection agencies for the corporations, who still hold the reins and collect the profits through public-private 'partnerships'. Feel free to share this newsletter in your own communities. Folks can receive Newsbytes directly by signing up at www.insidethebottle.org.

2) "On the Table: Water, Energy and North American Integration" This 41 page report was sponsored by the Munk Centre's Program on Water Issues and is available at:
