Water, Water, Everywhere and Not Enough to Drink

How safe is our drinking water, and are you aware that many countries have no drinking water.

We write articles everyday about drinking water, articles saying that our bodies should get an adequate amount of water so that we don’t dehydrate, but do we ever think about the fact that there are so many countries without decent drinking water. Have you ever stopped and considered how many companies are polluting the water with hazardous chemical that they put into our water. Water is a very precious resource, if were not careful one day there will not be enough water to go around.

 

What’s in the water that

were drinking today?

Industrialized waste is

contaminating our stream,

a filtered glass of water is

probably not what it seems.

 

There isn’t adequate treatment

to remove harmful compounds.

For those who are not properly informed,

they’re 6 feet under the ground.

 

Pollution is a major problem in

the global context………

Without water to drink everyday

 living will become very complex

 

500 people lack access to safe

drinking water…..

Diarrhea, sickness ever day, all

this needless sickness is so out of order.

 

For many of these people how

precious are the rain drops?

they depend on water to help

maintain their crops.

 

Water is a precious commodity

and it’s an invaluable resource,

we should be very careful not

to abuse our water or one day

we will all be suffering a serious loss.

    Very true…in many countries, poeple don’t even get good water to drink. Water, water, everywhere and not enough to drink, excellent title.

    As often in the western world, we do take the ‘basics’ of life for granted while so many others are suffering, well written article.

    This was a very interesting article. I agree that we do take water for granted. We do have to think about the countries who aren’t blessed to have water. It really does make you grateful if you are blessed to have water to drink.

    Good article. We should conserve and keep the water clean. In Philippines, there is water shortage – the water level in dams have decreased greatly.

    Well written lines. “Water, Water everywhere, but not a single drop to drink.” While that may not be the real case, there is real water scarcity around the world.
