Duration: 30 min
Description: New Zealand claims to be "Clean, Green and 100% Pure". Therefore, you could be forgiven for thinking the authorities would fight against poisoning water - forest streams and water catchments. But in New Zealand, it's the authorities doing the contaminating, and the people fighting to keep their water pure - and they're getting arrested doing it.
