A vital resource we’ve abused for far too long
We pollute it, then we spend millions trying to purify it. Every day on television we see its significance to life in Third World countries and we generously make donations to projects that supply it. Yet here at home we don’t recognise its importance and waste it on a large scale.
One thing is for sure ... no nation, no matter how wealthy and sophisticated, can either produce it or do without it. It’s more precious that gold. It’s called water. At present we are all witnessing just how quickly the decline in drinking water can bring a nation to its knees.
