Don't be squeamish about drinking filthy water. I assume people have to be less squeamish about Cholera, Dysentery, Hep A and Polio.

It is a long time since my school Environmental Geography lessons, but, isn't all, or at least, most water, recycled?

I seem to recall some diagrams of things called convection currents, and clouds, and precipitation?.... maybe I am mistaken, it was the 60's

I was under the impression that my tap water was probably recycled a number of times anyway as I live near the Thames , east of London, so the water has passed through treatment facilities in Oxford, Reading, West London and the city before it gets to me.

Passed through lots of kidneys, too.
