Maine Water Protests

Maine Today reports:


PORTLAND -- About 50 people turned out for an anti-bottled water protest in Tommy's Park in downtown Portland this afternoon.

The protest was mostly aimed at Poland Springs, which has met resistance in several York County towns this summer after proposing possible drilling on town-owned land.


Shapleigh residence vote this Saturday on the Poland Springs test drilling.

I think too many Mainers have seen what happens to towns that don't play along with Nestle/Poland Spring (Fryeburg's been sued/appealed at least four times by Nestle) to welcome the multinational with open arms.
