In today's world, water is
underestimated. No one thinks to turn the water off while they're brushing
their teeth or letting their shower water run too long. In reality, this is
causing huge problems with our water supply. According to statistics, only 1% of
our water is drinkable. One in five humans do not have access to safe water.
Some solutions to this are desalinization which is expensive but will work,
decreasing pollution and atmospheric water generators that gather water from
the air. The barrier to these solutions is money. The country/ world is already
in a recession so this issue isn't so big compared to creating more jobs or
finding a way to make more money. I believe that this is a big deal and we need
to do everything we can to fix this.
