Figures: 8 millions of people die every year in the world because of the lack of water.Unhealthy watermakes ten times more deaths than the current wars in the world. Moreover, water is very unequally distributed on our planet.South America is holding the quarter of the world reserves whereas 6% of the world population lives there. On the other hand, 60 % of the Earth inhabitants live in Asia which is only holding the third of the reserves. (Source: Nouvelles Clés)
