Water is the most vital stuff we need as human being, considering how sick we will feel without enough water.
Drinking water is the best way to cure us from any sickness and to keep us healthy under the heat of the sun. But, how can it cure sickness if the water we drink is not clean and hygiene anyway?
Well, it has been a long problem and matter for scientists about how to provide safe drinking water all around the world and even in some of the tropical areas or in the rather hot place. But, it is still difficult to handle since they do not get enough support from the government.
Anyway, can't we really solve the matter?
We hope this project can lead people in the world to pay more attention for those who are in need of safe drinking water.
