"Today 2.5 billion people, including almost one billion children, live without even basic sanitation. Every 20 seconds, a child dies as a result of poor sanitation. That's 1.5 million preventable deaths each year." – WSSCC
"More than one in six people worldwide - 894 million - don't have access to this amount of safe freshwater." – WHO & UNICEF
"The sheer scale of dirty water means more people now die from contaminated and polluted water than from all forms of violence including wars." – UNEP
"Water-borne illness is the second highest cause of childhood death in the world, and represents a global water crisis." – UNICEF
"Around 30 percent of the world's freshwater is stored underground in the form of groundwater (shallow and deep groundwater basins up to 2 000 metres, soil moisture, swamp water and permafrost). This constitutes about 97 percent of all the freshwater that is potentially available for human use." -- UNEP
