There are many things that we all take for granted...like water. In many countries all over the world, access to clean water is very limited and can have detrimental health effects to the people drinking it. The list of diseases that stem from dirty water is enormous. A large amount of countries struggle everyday with the fact that they may not even have access to water at all. for those in the developing world, gathering water for cleaning and cooking may be a day long process of walking for miles to the nearest water source. Many people in the US do not take this into consideration when taking 30 minute showers, or not repairing a leaking faucet. And why do we need to drink bottled water? Our tap water is perfectly fine! We are way too spolied.
In honor of World Water Day, which just passed a few days ago, I encourage you to watch this video, and maybe it will make you appreciate your water just a little bit more and think before wasting it.
