We need water!

Water is unarguably the most vital element in human life. You simply can't survive without this precious substance, and it is a shame that there are people with little access to it. Daily, a normal human being needs to consume about seven or eight cups of water in order to be healthy. However, there are millions of poor people who struggle to get even one cup per day. Imagine if in 100 years water eventually runs out in the world. This is something that could potentially happen, and its effects would be catastrophic. This is why we must help preserve water and raise awareness concerning the issue. By just doing small things like turning off the faucet while brushing our teeth, or minimizing the time of the shower we take, we reduce the consumption of water. Even though you think you can't make a difference, you really can. In addition to our water shortage problem, there are millions of people who can only obtain contaminated water, leading to another very serious conflict. According to a statistic from a water company, 663 million people lack access to safe water (This is more than double the US population!). Drinking dirty water is a very serious matter, as it can lead to many types of diarrheal diseases like Cholera, Typhoid, and Dysentery. These illnesses contribute to millions of deaths annually. Undisputedly, this water issue is something that must be eradicated immediately, and we must put in all our efforts to make it happen.
