    Only 56% of the population has access to a drinking water source.

    I don't get it... how do the rest survive?

      Containers alone. Or a mixture of containers for important things & low quality sources if available

        Yes but they must fill their containers at a drinking water source...

        Maybe it's a language thing I'm not understanding.

          In critical situations without proper plumbing, you even see things like Dubai trucking in water and trucking out poop (!!!) or the Isn't'realis trucking in water to make fucking semiconductors. Which was considered for TSMC Arizona plant (who needs the Colorado River!!! water sources are all in your head) until we just like, scared them off by not even playing ball with them.

          A source is like something you can bottle from. I don't think buying gallon bottles of water counts. Also, tainted water that gives a baby cholera in a formula mix doesn't count.

          "Perri Air" does not qualify as an "air source" ;-)
