The Facts
  • Imagine if twelve jumbo jets crashed a day! That
    would be 5,000 lives extinguished daily and over
    150,000 lives a month. Could you imagine if the
    majority of those who died were children! The
    world would be in hysterics! More than likely,
    world leaders would rush to cooperate to figure
    out a solution to the crashes. Legislation would
    be passed immediately without regard to
    international relations but to save lives.
  • However, what if you knew that an equal number of
    casualties do occur every day but not as a result
    of plane crashes, but as a result of unclean
    drinking water. Tragically, 5,000 children die a
    day as a result of water-born diseases in
    developing areas of the world such as Africa.

More of The Facts
  • We have discovered that access to clean drinking
    water is not available to millions of people.
  • The next time you feel thirsty and grab a bottle
    of water, hopefully you will realize how lucky
    you are to have clean drinking water. The point
    is not to feel guilty, but to be aware that all
    people do not have access to clean drinking
    water. This may provoke you to do something about
    it such as spreading the word to others to
    conserve water. Who knows, you may even become an
    ambassador to the United Nations and serve as a
    chairperson on a committee dealing with the
    worlds supply of clean drinking water?

This is the water that many poor nations, or at
least parts of them must drink every day.
This is Clean, safe, drinkable water
