Making a Splash

Water is the most abundant molecule on the surface of the Earth, and covers nearly 3/4 of the whole planet. Yet, in many places, water is the most precious commodity there is. As the climate changes, both urban and rural communities are facing water scarcity, and we need to start thinking about how to value and conserve this precious resource. In this final episode of the inaugural series of Earth Unscrewed, Helen and Seyi learn where and why there isn't enough water to go around, and meet people priming the pump to tackle the water crisis head on.
