The statistics of the millions of people dying from not having clean water and knowing that this can be prevented with the advances in science and technology does not set well with me. I firmly believe that if someone has the ability, knowledge and resources to help those in need that we should. Dr. Taylor and his team are doing their part in ending the water crisis in third world countries, but where are the bigger contributors? Water is an essential part of the lives of human beings who need water for survival. Dr. Taylor believes that if we can all either do our part to help those in need and work to get the word spread about the water crisis that our global future may be able to thrive.
