Over half a million people lack access to clean water. That's one in 10 people on the planet. Clean water is essential to the health of all living things-human, animal, plant, cellular. What causes the contaminants in our water and ecosystems? And, what are the related problems that affect our consumption, sanitation, and the larger environment?
