Free Water

In the the video they say that water is life's most basic need, and it is. So why can't the whole world enjoy it. Nearly 1 billion people live without clean drinking water. That's a lot of people. There's only 7 billion people in the world and out of that 7 billion, 1 billion of those don't have clean drinking water.
Women and children are infected the most by this crisis. The time women spend getting water could be spent learning or taking care of family. All because they don't have a safe, nearby water source. Kids drinking this water are being exposed to a lot of diseases by drinking this water.
So I think that there should be more wells and irrigation systems so they can get clean water. Nobody should have to fight tirelessly every day just for a resource that we have the most of. People could be living there lives happily if they had better ways of getting water.
