Provide Safe Water by Law: Now

Safe water is something that everyone should have access to. Could we not enshrine in law the effort to provide safe water.

There are various organisations sinking bore holes and wells; they are not necessarily the appropriate answer to people's water supply problems. In some areas the ground water becomes easily polluted by natural means and the bore holes and wells in those areas soon become worthless. This is not good enough: we must learn by these mistaken efforts to help and proceed with a more sustainable approach.

Law could provide the funds necessary to make the supply of safe water effective and widespread. We are spending millions on the exploration of space yet many people are dying because of the state of their water or because they do not have sufficient to survive.

Do you want the law to intervene in this way? I do.
