Currently, 2 billion people worldwide live without access to water or do not have access that meets basic hygiene standards. We are facing a global water crisis, which is a direct consequence of the climate crisis and, in turn, has been recognized as "the most severe threat multiplier to global security," as stated by UNEP, the United Nations agency dedicated to environmental issues. While many parts of the world are grappling with health emergencies, social tensions, and even outright wars linked to water supply difficulties, in wealthier and more developed countries, we still need to debunk the myth that water is a free resource.
