  • Roughly 70 percent of an adult’s body is made up of water.
  • At birth, water accounts for approximately 80 percent of an infant’s body weight.
The importance of water is enormous, but unfortunately not enough is being done to help

  • 884 million people lack access to clean water
  • Every 20 seconds a child dies from a water related disease
