Product Description
One billion people in the world do not have access to safe water. Half of the world's hospitalizations are prompted by water-related diseases. Almost one-and-a-half million children die every year from these illnesses. This is largely because of poverty and social conflict, but droughts make the situation exponentially worse.Food production and water supplies are inseparably linked to the climate, and Earth's climate is changing as a result of global warming.
