The need for safe water to drink is an understatement. What are your drinking water sources? Does it come from a well or does it come from the city. Bottled water is nice but sometimes it is nothing more than tap water. The sad fact is that not all water supplies are the same. Some countries only have contaminated water to drink, which perpetuates an endless cycle of dysentery and guinea worm disease. It is a real problem for these countries and they must look for ways to provide safe, treated water.

All water comes from the ground. The problem arises when contaminates soak through the ground and down into the source water. The contaminated water is then sent through the drinking water systems, but sometimes all contaminants are not removed. These contaminates include waste run off from industrial businesses, human pollution and pesticides from farmlands. Even human and animal excrement will infiltrate these source waters. It is hard to fathom why some areas would pump their waste into their water supplies.
