あらすじ・解説
"“I had no idea the Amazon Water Charity was doing so much positive good. I wanted to get involved immediately!” (Adam Cheshier, best-selling writer)
Water is the source of all life on planet Earth. But, to the surprise of many, we are running out of it. Why is that?
To some, it is impossible to imagine a city running out of water. The possibility just doesn’t exist for so many of us who are fortunate enough to have nearly unlimited access to clean drinking water. It is something many people take for granted. But that unlimited well has a limit, and we are reaching it quicker than you might imagine.
Did you know:
The lack of water would be a crisis if even a million people didn’t have access to clean, drinkable water. But it’s not a million people; it is 844 million people around the world who lack access to clean water. Without clean, easily accessible water, families and communities are locked in poverty for generations. Children drop out of school, and parents struggle to make a living.
Access to clean water changes everything; it’s a stepping-stone to development. When people gain access to clean water, they are better able to practice good hygiene and sanitation. Children enjoy good health and are more likely to attend school. Parents put aside their worries about water-related diseases and lack of access to clean water. Instead, they can water crops and livestock and diversify their incomes. Communities no longer vie for rights to a waterhole.
Inside, you will learn:
- Some of the most affected areas of the world by the drinking water crisis
- Drinking water solutions of megacities around the world
- How close we really are to Zero Day in the current water crisis
- Where the crisis has turned to violent conflict
- How families are truly affected by a lack of clean water
- What residents in poor communities are actually dealing with
- The governmental solutions that could save us
- Water nonprofit organizations changing the world
- How to get involved in clean water solutions
- How to write a volunteer cover letter to a water nonprofit
- And much more!
