What is the solution to the water shortage?

Desalination would be awesome if it didn’t cost so much to build and was so difficult to operate and the power costs are also outrageous. How can we possibly offer clean water to everyone in the world at a small price? How do we do this? Privatization of water costs too much and many governments are unable to manage their water system at all. What should we do?

How can I purify the water of chemicals?

Boiling water kills most organisms, but how about chemicals and hormones? I don’t want to be drinking estrogen/whatever else people piss and flush into the water system after popping their pills. I already got rid of my plastic bottle drinking habits because of BPA and the environment, but the hormones/chemicals lurking in the water system get me paranoid. Help?
