We who live in the United States often take clean water for granted. Our government on all levels from federal, state, region and county for the most part have resources in places to ensure that we have clean water to cook with, bathe in and drink whether it is from the tap or bottled and processed at some plant. Sadly though we also are some of the most wasteful users of water who often take clean water for granted when according to WHY WATER, http://www.charitywater.org/whywater/, “almost a billion people on the planet don’t have access to clean, safe drinking water. That’s one in eight of us.” Almost one sixth of our planets population, are you one of them, probably not if you’re reading this blog.
Think before you take your next drink of water.
Let the palate of your pen and the fingers of your hand become a source of change in the water policies before you become one of eight people without clean water to cook with, bathe with and drink.
Stand for an International Water Treaty to Provide Clean Water Everywhere
