While world population continues to increase, our freshwater supplies appear to have stagnated and in some cases even trickled to a halt. Residents all the way from California to Brazil are battling multi-year droughts. Earlier this year, some citizens of Sao Paola were so desperate that they drilled through basements and parking lots to try access groundwater. Experts estimate that there are currently a billion people in the world that lack clean drinking water.

      I used this for a Current Event project a little while ago. It was a huge pasteboard, complete with graphs, essays, facts, everything about freshwater. It took a week, and it got 100%

                      I think that Singh wasn't lucky; he worked hard to help other people... he is very kind-hearted

                        You are right, if someone wants to get something achieved, he must work hard because "luck" isn't always there to help you do everything.
