Actor and apparent humanitarian, Matt Damon is raising awareness for the global water crisis but not using the bathroom. The jokester made a YouTube video of a pretend press conference saying that he will stop using the bathroom in order to raise awareness about the millions of humans worldwide who are living without access to clean water.

"In protest of this global tragedy -- until this issue is resolved, until everybody has access to clean water and sanitation -- I will not go to the bathroom," Damon said in the video.

ABC News reported that 780 million people around the world are living without access to clean water and 2.5 billion are living without even the most basic sanitation or toilet.

The three minute video is funny but brings forth a serious issue. Damon is the co-founder of Water.org. "In protest of this global tragedy, until this issue is resolved, until everybody has access to clean water and sanitation, I will not go to the bathroom," the "Promised Land" he said in the video. "More people have cellphones than toilets."

Water.org's website states, "The water and sanitation problem in the developing world is far too big for charity alone. We are driving the water sector for new solutions, new financing models, greater transparency, and real partnerships to create lasting change. Our vision: the day when everyone in the world can take a safe drink of water."

The organization was co-founded by Damon and Gary White and is a non profit that helps communities in South Asia, Africa and Central America by providing access to clean water and sanitation.

"Although water is a renewable resource, it is also a finite one. Only 2.53 percent of earth's water is fresh, and some two-thirds of that is locked up in glaciers and permanent snow cover. But despite the very real danger of future global water shortages, for the vast majority of the nearly one billion people without safe drinking water, today's water crisis is not an issue of scarcity, but of access," reports Water.org on the crisis.
