Q : Really? What about something as simple as water? As I mentioned earlier, a huge percentage of humans to this very day has no access to clean water.
A : That is not a problem of lack of water, but lack of will. There are not enough people among your species who care about making clean water available to those who have no immediate access to it. If there were, this would not be a problem.
Q : You're right, of course. The World Resources Institute reports on its website that “armed with the right information, countries facing extremely high stress can implement management and conservation strategies to secure their water supplies.”
Unfortunately, a country at the bottom of the economic scale may not have that capacity. So it would be up to the richer nations of the world to help make this happen.
A : Yes, it’s simply a matter of a civilization sharing. I assure you, there needs to be no place on Earth where people cannot have access to clean, pure water—and whatever else is needed to “make life work”—if the people of Earth simply cared enough about each other.
But it must be remembered that, as you pointed out earlier, we are talking about a species which lets over 650 of its own children die of starvation every hour.
A : Primitive or not, Earth’s people shouldn’t die from insufficient food, for goodness sake. Of all things, on a planet where you will scrape off enough food from the plates of diners tonight in restaurants from Paris to Los Angeles to Tokyo than would be needed to feed a small village in some areas of your world for a week, no child needs to starve to death.
