== Access to Water in Bolivia ==
 
 
=== Privatization ===
 
 
Privatization led to increased prices and lack of access, rather than increased access. In Bolivia, even though much of the major city covered by the documentary was connected up by the global water company, the poor could not afford the connection charges. Some 200,000 people in that city—a quarter of the population—were not connected.<ref name="water"> [http://www.globalissues.org/article/601/water-and-development. Water and Developement]</ref>

===Water Shortages===
 
 
Scientists<ref name="water"/> monitoring the glaciers high in the Andes mountains - a key source of water - say the ice is showing signs of shrinking faster than previously forecast. Faced with a booming population and a combination of glacial retreat and reduced rainfall, the governor of the La Paz region is even contemplating moving people to other parts of Bolivia. Water is already in short supply among the poorest communities and has become a cause of tension. [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8394324.stm Glacier Threat to Bolivia Capital]

Climate change & Natural disasters
 
Changes in sea surface temperatures or temperatures in the atmosphere can change the height of cloud bases or influence the extent of the cloud decks. Therefore be sure to site the collection nets in the middle of the most dense region of fog. If climate change causes the cloud patterns to move, the nets will need to be moved to maximise the area of greatest fog density.
