It is widely recognised that clean water is a fundamental human right and that all people should be provided with a free water supply Suggested change: to their homesto their homes1to their home. Suggested change: I entirely agree with this viewI entirely agree with this view2This essay will entirely agree but acknowledge that it is nonetheless highly unlikely that this will happen soon. Suggested change: Primarily, given thatPrimarily, given that3First of all, given that it is a basic human right, Suggested change: water ought to be providedwater ought to be provided4water should of course be provided free of charge to all citizens. A government’s duty should be first and foremost to protect its people and of the various essentials for life, Suggested change: probably none is as importantprobably none is as important5probably none are as important as fresh water. It is even more important than food and shelter.

Suggested change: NeverthelessNevertheless8In spite of all that, it does seem unlikely that all governments can achieve such a feat. Even in countries like China, which have Suggested change: immense financial resourcesimmense financial resources9vast amounts of wealth and extremely powerful governments, the water that people get in their homes is not potable. In poorer nations, it is not only Suggested change: non-potablenon-potable10unpotable but quite often unclean, meaning that it can only be used for Suggested change: sanitation purposes such as flushing toiletssanitation purposes such as flushing toilets11things like flushing toilets. In many parts of the world, it is currently impractical to even provide an unclean water supply and so people have to collect it from elsewhere and bring it home or else they must gather rainwater during certain seasons. Thus, even if it is ethical for all governments to provide clean water and practical for some of them, it is not realistic that it will happen in the near future. In conclusion, Suggested change: I agreeI agree12this essay agrees that water should be provided to all homes free of charge but admits that it almost certainly will not happen in certain parts of the world.
