Why Water is the Big Issue
• at any given moment almost half the developing world's people are sick from unsafe water and sanitation.
• lack of water supply and sanitation robs millions of dignity, energy, and time.
• frequent disease is the main cause of poor growth and early death.
• for a third of the world the real environmental crisis is squalor, smells and disease on the doorstep.
