Films for Water: Screening Raises Awareness for World Water Crisis

Tonight, Starbucks invites the public to a complimentary screening of "Running Dry," "One Water", and "Kenya – Ethos". "Running Dry" is an explosive in-depth documentary inspired by former U.S. Senator Paul Simon's book Tapped Out. Narrated by Jane Seymour, the film frames the coming world crisis in water and what we can do about it. "One Water" is a short film that will run immediately after "Running Dry." "Kenya – Ethos" is a film showing a glimpse into the change one small water company has made in the country of Kenya.

Participate in an event to raise awareness for the World Water crisis. Starbucks is committed to taking care of the world we live in. The "Films for Water" to commemorate World Water Day is just one example of Starbucks and Ethos' long-term commitment to raise awareness of the world water crisis through educating and informing its many customers and partners, and empowering them to play a personal role in helping alleviate the world water crisis.
