Food & Water Watch (a spin-off of Public Citizen, which I see that you reference) has a ton of information on water issues, especially desalination. Earlier in the year we released Desalination: An Ocean of Problems and we are actively fighting several desal facilities across the country: http://www.foodandwaterwatch.org/water/desalination.

In addition to the fights that you mention, you should also add a potential facility in northeast Florida to your list. Email me for more info on that.

Also–as a comms person for FWW, I read a lot of policy blogs and I have to say that yours is on of my favorites (and no, I’m not just saying that so you’ll link to us…)

My name is Joseph Puentes and I’m an environmental podcaster (http://H2Opodcast.com). I’d like to offer my volunteer help at starting a WaterBlogged podcast. I am not financially motivated in this offer because I am trying to help get more audio presentations on our precious water resources out to a very needy public. I will help record, edit, tag with your information and upload the audio to archive.org. I’ll then supply you with the direct URL location of the audio so you can post it to your blog/website page.

Can I talk to you further about this?
