Polution and Pesticides
In this video, they showed how people all over the world are affected from unhealthy water. They showed how pollution like pesticides and viruses are harming people, especially children, every day. In fact one in ten children will die before the age of five mostly because of unhealthy water. And 30,000 people die every day, but it would only cost 30 billion dollars to get clean water for the entire world, but we spend three times that on bottled water!

Profit and Poverty
Big companies are getting a large profit off bottled water like Nestle, who owns 70 bottled water brands. 100 billion dollars is spent on bottled water worldwide yearly, and they are making dams to hold all the water that is demanded, creating poverty for thousands of people. Actually, more than one million people were displaced (forced to move) in china because of dams. Sadly, lots of those people needed that land for agriculture, which uses 70 percent of water, while only 10 percent is used by us.

Poison, Pesticides, and Power
Pesticides also poison and harm people a lot. Atrazine is the main pesticide used, and it causes lots of diseases like breast cancer. But all over the world there are birth defects and fertility problems, and in the last 5 years, fish are changing gender, so that there are too many females and not enough males. Power is not a good enough reason to do these things to people in my opinion, but it still happens. Did you know that 40 percent of stomach flues come from water? And if we are 70 percent water, we need to do something!
