Water is at the convergence of many topics in many ways:

Developped countries spend annually billions euros for drinkable water in their WC, that represent one third of the water consumption for one person per day, for a 600 L consumption per person and per day in the USA, 400 in UK, 310 in France but 130 in Germany and 120 in Sweden.
The worldwide economy system assert that it is impossible to produce the latrines that half of the world population needs.Why? because it cost around 15 or 20 billion euros, that is the equivalent of 5 days of worlwide military expense.
But the financial resources do exist: a few month ago, the Australian bank Maquarie spent 14 billion euros to buy one of the most important private water enterprise, Thames Water. The aim? Make a lot of money with the distribution of drinkable water….
