World water map

This map shows how many people in each country have access to safe drinking water. Most countries can provide safe drinking water for nearly all of their people. Unfortunately, there are still many places in Africa and Southeast Asia that do not have enough access to safe drinking water, with a majority of the people in these nations being forced to use unsafe water or boiling the water make it safe.
