Face it: Clean tap water is something you take for granted. The thing is, other people, lots of them actually, aren’t so lucky. As a matter of fact, the lack of clean drinking water is one of the most urgent health crises facing the planet today. The Tap Project lets you do something about that. But don’t worry, it’s easy—all you have to do is have a glass of water. On March 22, 2007, the United Nations' World Water Day, hundreds of restaurants in New York City, home to some of the best tap water on the planet, will invite their customers to pay $1 for something they normally get for free. The funds collected will help UNICEF save lives by providing safe drinking water to children around the world.This is an amazing idea. I'm not usually one for getting water at restaurants (usually go for a diet coke) because I always liked the way that soda pop (soda or pop) but sometimes I just have to get a water. Most of the time its simply because I do not have the money for a pop I will grab a water. I mean, heaven help we get charged for a naturally occurring substance.
