Water conservation is relevant to a number of important topics. Water shortages, or contaminated water sources lead to economic and public health crisis in over 50 countries throughout the world. Inhabitable waterways also prevent wildlife from thriving in different areas, ruining the harvest and natural beauty of many areas throughout the world.
