3 What about clean water In today’s modern society, it seems to be an assumption that city-supplied tap water, if not always the healthiest specimen of drinking water, has at least gone through some disinfection and purification processes prior to distribution. Most residents of the United States turn on their faucets feeling confident they can drink the water without contracting a waterborne disease or dying immediately. However, it is only a relatively new phenomenon for water consumers to receive treated water as an inherent right of municipal residence. For hundreds of years, as water treatment methods have evolved, the quality of municipal drinking water has developed from a relatively sketchy product to a strictly regulated commodity.

4 Lets talk about it WATER Dirty Water Kills 5,000 Children a Day More than 1.2 billion people have gained access to safe water since 1990 But sub-Saharan Africa remains a major area of concern, especially countries affected by conflict "According to Sir Edwin Chadwick, Dr. B. W. Richardson, and all other sanitarians of repute, small-pox is a disease due to insanitary conditions, impure water, bad drainage, dirty living,. and particularly to overcrowding; and, instead of removing these conditions, the Governments of India during the past thirty years have been spending their, energies, and large sums of money, in extending vaccination."-- William Tebb William Tebb Three-quarters of the Earth's surface is covered with water, yet 98 percent is salt water and not fit for consumption. Less than one percent of all the water on Earth is freshwater available for human consumption The human body is more than 60 percent water. Blood is 92 percent water, the brain and muscles are 75 percent water, and bones are about 22 percent water. 3.9 trillion gallons of water are consumed in the United States per month The average American uses 176 gallons of water per day compared to 5 gallons of water the average African family uses each day At any one time, it is estimated that half the world's hospital beds are occupied with patients suffering from waterborne diseases Over 40 billion work hours are lost each year in Africa to the need to fetch drinking water. The average distance that women in developing countries walk to collect water per day is four miles and the average weight that women carry on their heads is approximately 44 pounds
