Former Nestlé CEO Peter Brabeck-Letmathe has been named interim Chairman, replacing Klaus Schwab at the helm of the World Economic Forum.

Brabeck-Letmathe is known for his stance that water is not a human right but a commodity.

He has long pushed for strict control over personal water usage — even arguing that pools and car washes shouldn’t be a matter of personal choice.

He envisions a future where an authoritative global body determines how much water individuals can consume.
