About
Less than 3% of all the water available on earth is fresh water and most of it is inaccessible. A growing world population is increasingly consuming the earth’s resources. The price for all of this comes in the form of reduced access to fresh, clean, drinking water. Water – this resource may be Earth’s most precious and the demand for it is so high that in many areas’ severe water restrictions are already in effect. According to the office of accountability, 36 US states anticipate water shortage.
