Water and poverty


Water is begging to grow scare and people are having a harder time getting water, because now a days obtaining money is much more difficult than before. Water, hard to get and irreplaceable. Even though we all know how important water is to us, to humanity, still we have a hard time to really understand it, because if we truly understood how valuable water is we would take good care of it. Hopefully now that water scarcity is more noticeable people will gain consciousness and take care of water.

However, money in this case is an important factor, because if you have money you can get water pipes that go directly to your house and have water in an instant. There are many people in poor countries that can not even afford that, sometimes they have to travel long ways to get potable water and there are people that are not allowed to go and get potable water in certain areas because of their social standard.

So, water is related to wealth and wealth is related with your geographical location, which at the same time is related to society, everything is interrelated. At the end what people need to survive is money.
