EVERY YEAR, MORE PEOPLE DIE FROM UNSAFE WATER THAN FROM ALL FORMS OF VIOLENCE, INCLUDING WAR

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT SOURCES OF WATER POLLUTION ARE LACK OF INADEQUATE TREATMENT OF HUMAN WASTES AND INADEQUATELY MANAGED AND TREATED INDUSTRIAL AND AGRICULTURAL WASTES

MORE THAN 1 BILLION PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD STILL HAVE NO ACCESS TO FRESH WATER

LESS THAN 3 PERCENT OF THE WATER ON THE EARTH IS DRINKABLE, OF WHICH 2.5 PERCENT IS FROZEN IN ANTARCTICA, ARCTIC AND GLACIERS. THEREFORE, HUMANITY MUST RELY ON THE 0.5 PERCENT.
