Scarcity of water is a big problem, since people can't have the basic needs for them, just as sanitation. The main problem is that in water-poor countries, people, principally children, die of diseases are connected with the poor water supply, hygiene and sanitation. This problem affects more than fourty per cent of the global population and sadly it is estimated that it will rise.
I believe that this problem is extremly serious, since water and proper sanitation are vital for the human health, Also, we use water every day in our daily lifes. We think it's common to open a tap and to see water going through it, we bath every day expecting to get a shower of water. People with water resources would never imagine of not having a bottle of fresh water to drink when you want, nevertheless, this actually happens. People suffer from this, some of them have to take long walks to get little water that maybe it isn't 100% fresh, these walks can take more than six hours. So yes, I think this is an important problem that it should have never started, but wistfully it did.
