Look, there’s never going to be world peace, but one thing humanity can achieve is global access to clean drinking water. Regardless of political or religious beliefs, clean water is neutral. It’s a basic human necessity, essential for survival. Read Less

    There are looking to be wars over water potentially, and doing something as simple giving all people water can save lives, not only through staving off dehydration

    A lot of times, communities that are dealing with dirty water had clean water at one point. The water was either polluted or bought out by big water companies. Clean water is a necessity and should be guaranteed to all.

I consider being provided clean drinking water a basic human right, an ethical decision, and a moral duty to follow through on. Even through a utilitarian perspective (which I can’t say I’m a big fan of), it make more economic sense to ensure that the global workforce, well, stays alive! Read Less

    Everybody deserves clean water. It’s a necessity and there’s no reason we all shouldn’t have access to it.
