This is an infographic I had to create for the same course I’m writing this blog for. The infographic itself is really self explanatory, and it highlights some of the most basic information that’s available about the global water crisis. This crisis is essentially the fact that millions of people all around the world lack access to clean water – a most basic necessity to human life which many of us take for granted. Certainly, there was no way I could incorporate all the information I found into a single infographic, but I would urge anyone who’s interested in the global water crisis to do your own research, because there’s plenty of it out there. And great non-profits, such as charity:water, provide great information because they are working first-hand with people who are experiencing the water crisis. I was really inspired by watching the story of charity:water’s founder, Scott Harrison. I stumbled upon the video in the middle of pulling a late night of studying and homework, and I actually ended up watching all 40 minutes of it. Not only is the organization inspirational in what it’s trying to do, Scott’s personal story is really amazing. Plus, it’s fascinating to hear some of the behind the scenes stories of how non-profits work and function. Good stuff!
