Growing up in Kenya Sapna Mulki was forced to appreciate the importance of water, which was often very scarce, but was surprised to learn others take it for granted.
Globally more than a billion people are currently living without enough clean safe water.
Sapna, a water consultant & host of the podcast Breaking Green Ceilings, is trying to change that by promoting a better understanding of the value of earth's most precious and vulnerable resource.
She explains the problems with the world's water systems, which leave whole communities, in even the richest countries such as the USA, without a decent water supply.
Sapna tells Harriet what she believes needs to be done, from a governmental level to individuals altering our daily habits, to help preserve water and ensure everyone has equal access to such a basic human right.
