After reading this you’ll think twice before drinking water when in another country.   Did you know?
 

• Every 8 seconds a child dies from a water-related disease
• 50% of people in developing countries suffer from one or more water related disease
• 80% of these diseases in the developing countries are caused by contaminated water
• 50% of people on Earth lack adequate sanitation
• 20% of freshwater fish species have been pushed to the edge of extinction by contaminated water.

So next time before you go on that trip just reading these facts I would make sure to bring my own water.  Bring a filtered water bottle, just to be on the safe side I wouldn’t want to be in those statistics.
