The world water crisis has not affected me directly, but it has opened my eyes to the growing problem that millions of people are facing. It has also made me more aware of the amount of water I use that is not critical for survival. People in Kenya and Ethiopia are struggling to find clean drinking water to survive day to day while industrialized nations such as the U.S. are not facing that problem. The conservation of water alone will not help people around the world who are dying from water related diseases. The situation in developing countries is a glimpse into the future about what the whole world will face if the problem is not resolved quickly. This crisis will probably not affect me here in the U.S. because this country is not currently facing water scarcity issues nor is it going to for quite some time.
