When I was in Mali, I drank less than potable water. I had all sorts of tummy nasties when I got home. However, what was more horrifying was the sick and children who had dysentery for no other reason then their water was not healthy. We used to joke amongst ourselves - "Note to self, stop eating shit". While in the American context this seems silly, in many other places, it is the reality for everyone.
Please see this very inspirational video from TED about how we can give everyone healthy drinking water, and move onto problems that can't be solved.
