The Lack of Access to Clean Water is a detrimental crisis as every living thing on this Earth needs water to survive. I chose to research this topic because every morning and evening, I turn on the tap and brush my teeth. The access to water that I obtain is something I never have to think twice about. Water is a resource that most people overlook. This paper highlights the lack of access to clean water in developing and developed nations. It also brings to attention the effects on countries, governments, society, and citizens. Access to clean, safe water is a human right that is violated day after day. Solutions need to be executed to save millions of people from unsafe water.
