September 2007:: Clean Water for Children
The amount of water in one flush of a toilet is all the water most children in
the developing world have for an entire day. More children die from a lack of clean water than all other diseases combined. Clean water is the main ingredient for good sanitation. Contaminated water carries bacteria that causes pneumonia, diarrhea, and other respiratory and infectious diseases. Every two minutes, a child dies from drinking bad water. In many developing areas, there simply isn't enough clean water to go around: people must choose whether to use it to wash, cook, or drink. Children are kept from attending school because they may need up to six hours per day to haul water long distances.
