Is Your Water Clean?
Humans have established communities and flourished around sources of clean, drinkable water since the beginning oftime. It’s vital to our survival.
Do you know that you can survive several days without food but not without water? It’s heartbreaking to know that millions of people worldwide do not have access to this most basic need, and are dying of thirst and water borne diseases.
Freshwater sources around the world are threatened by water pollution. Not only are we managing our resources poorly through wastage, we are also thoughtlessly dirtying it.
Water, Our most important natural resource which is the basis for life and its survival is available scarcely across the globe and ridden with impurities some of which are natural and some man-made. These impurities when taken regularly pose a serious health concern and need to be addressed.
Due to the global changes, water pollution has become a major problem has become imperative and unavoidable and drinking impure water has become a series health issue. Even the governments across the world try their best to provide clean water as much as plausible, they can do only so much. With all the technological advancements in filtering processes, you might have noticed, you still get water which might not be pure and safe to drink. Few instances like water loaded with excess chlorine due to chlorination, dust particles due to rusty pipes etc. so on so forth etc.
Sources of Pollution
With the climate changes, we are seeing untimely natural calamities like bushfires, flash floods which further aggravate the water pollution. This increases the risk of more impurities and pollution in municipal water provided by the authorities.
People get throat infections and fall sick often owing to drinking unsafe water. Here you can see especially when drinking outside directly from the tap or at your relative/friends home who give unfiltered water unknowingly. Whenever you go out for camping or trekking you avoid water outside by buying the plastic mineral water bottles. Seldom these are not to be trusted plus you are increasing the usage of plastic which is not environment-friendly.
Water impurities are real, whether you believe it or not
Effect of Polluted Water on Us
How does water pollution affect humans? Try drinking untreated water nowadays and your body will immediately react to it. You will get a stomach ache at the least. Water-borne diseases account for the deaths of 3,575,000 people a year! That’s equivalent to a jumbo jet crashing every hour, and the majority of these are children.
Infectious diseases can be spread through contaminated water. Some of these water-borne diseases are Typhoid, Cholera, Paratyphoid Fever, Dysentery, Jaundice, Amoebiasis and Malaria.
Chemicals in the water also have negative effects on our health.
Pesticides – can damage the nervous system and cause cancer because of the carbonates and organophosphates that they contain. Chlorides can cause reproductive and endocrinal damage.
Nitrates – are especially dangerous to babies that drink formula milk. It restricts the amount of oxygen in the brain and cause the “blue baby” syndrome.
Lead – can accumulate in the body and damage the central nervous system.

About Me
I am Divya, living in Sydney, Australia, Originally from India. I am working as a mom looking after my 1-year-old!
Why Bluewatir Idea started?
Well, this was accidental and my husband gave me this idea of Bluewatir. He always falls sick(cold & sore throat), the moment he drinks water outside or unfiltered water. It was becoming a problem to carry filtered water everywhere we go and expensive to buy plastic bottles outside. Not only we are spending money outside but all harming environment by increased use of plastic. If at all, we go camping or outings it has become all the more troublesome. This problem I thought would be face by many households. Many people especially children are more prone to water-borne diseases due to water pollution or drinking impure water. So I was looking for ways to solve this problem and I was frantically searching for a purifier/water filter which can be easily carried around, efficient and has multi-level purification system. That’s when I thought about Bluewatir. I visioned it to be compact, portable, can be fixed to any tap and does the job of purifying water.
Thus, Bluewatir came into existence with the sole aim of providing clean, safe and healthier drinking water. We realised water which is a basic necessity for survival often gets ignored in the grand scheme of things. People unconsciously forget to give adequate attention it deserves to safe drinking water. I, Divya, who bought this idea is a classic example of unconscious ignorance for the reasons mentioned above.
I really want to help families and communities to avoid problems caused due to water pollution or drinking unsafe water. This can be easily avoided and make our families healthier. I am really passionate to take this idea to as many people as possible as I’m pretty sure Bluewatir will definitely help drink a better clean and safe water, can help reduce people falling sick due to drinking unsafe water.
Please help me to take Bluewatir to as many people as want by pledging your support.
