Water is taken for granted in many places but is scarce or inaccessible in others. In Kenya, people die daily due to lack of access to water, while Americans waste water through everyday activities. Babies in drought-stricken areas of East Africa do not receive enough water, and pumping water becomes harder as supplies dwindle in India, forcing women to work harder. Access to water is essential for daily life but many face shortages.
