  2. Water Scarcity Bad water kills more children than war. With burgeoning populations and rapidly growing cities, the demand for water is increasing for use in agriculture, industry and households. At the same time one in three people do not have access to clean water for daily use around the world and polluted water kills more children than war. The problem is current and critical and as custodians of the earth deserves our urgent attention. Young leaders will need to find solutions to this issue in order to create a sustainable future.
