Clean Water Access Health Consequences

Welcome and thank you for taking the time to attend to my presentation.

I hope to tell you more about clean water and the effect he has on a global point of

view and how it can affect our future generation If

we do not take the proper steps to prevent the

and

I am fluent in french and spanish.

So if you hear any funny pronunciation uh

you know why at least I tried

well with that being said, let's go ahead and get started.

So our planet just hit a milestone which

marks the global population of a billion humans.

Well this is my, this might be something to celebrate. It is uh

important to know that he also bring,

brings challenges and consequences

that will affect the opportunity commission to come.

Well in the eight billion humans,

there are still over two billion people without access to clean water.

Um

that's a big number

now they may have water but they don't have clean water

and that's an issue. So let me show you how the next slide.

It's a bigger issue because it is an easier way for disease to spread.

This is like diarrhea, malaria and cholera and of course many more.

So let's take a look at diarrhea.

You see you and I including your pet,

of course we all depend on clean water because it allows

us to live into a vital source for our existence.

We found with unsafe water comes the sad reality of sickness.

Keep in mind of those who doesn't have the same luxuries as we do

According to the World Health Organization drinking water of hundreds of millions

of people is dangerously dangerously contaminated

or chemically polluted with over 829,000 people

That dies due to contaminated drinking water and preventable of 297,000 deaths.

Most deaths, most most,

most of which are Children that dies due to diarrhea from lack of clean water.

So as you can see

the numbers are pretty,

pretty enormous and it's actually a bigger issue if we

decide to look at it with a closer lens,

diarrhea on its own is a massive cause of

the illness and every year according to the CDC,

the germs that contaminate water in developing countries is called

crypto parady. Um

and no,

this is just a quick image of the cycle of cryptosporidium and how it works.

It occurs when thesis of sick people or animals contaminates water through

sewage structures and unless the water is boiled before drinking it,

cryptosporidium certify filters and water treatments in forms of

voices and UV lights

that water is still deemed extremely hazardous

to humans.

And I'll show you a quick picture here of different forms of

disinfecting the water on the left is you how the

water is disaffected or purified purified using UV lights.

And on the right is the diffusion and also voices of purification

and as this is already epidemic, There is another issue

And malaria is commonly known for generations as

one of the worst diseases known to mankind.

It is responsible for over 241 million cases and nearly 627,000 deaths annually.

That's a big number right there.

According to the CDC,

malaria is commonly a disease that's caused due to

parasites infection through a specific type of mosquitoes,

which then continues to feed on humans.

Typically,

malaria is commonly known to be spread only through the forms of being being by

a mosquito called a no felice. I think that's how you say it.

Which was likely infected through a passive blog meal,

in which case the person is already the person already had malaria.

Well, you might be wondering what this has to do with waterborne diseases.

Well,

a study conducted by the Journal of

Advanced Research tested several factors in low socioeconomic

countries with over 267,000 people who met

their criteria and the results are horrible.

The study showed that Children in many parts use flash pit toilet water

as a source of hydration due to not having access to clean uh water

Well across all studies that were conducted

and unprotected water user conducted a chill,

including Children had on average 43% rates of malaria infection compared to it.

9.5 average ridge rates of infection in those with protected water sources

and here's pictures for the sewage or the water facility that cleans the water.

It's wide open and mosquitoes can just lay on it contaminate the water.

And that's how diseases

transmitted

whatever on diseases such as diarrhea and

malaria have the biggest health impact yearly.

Clara is actually

the one that's flying under the radar.

And um

As it continues to affect millions of people every year,

nearly four million people are infected and over 145,000 deaths annually.

So

you might be thinking why are these people are allowed to drink those kinds of water?

A similar study conducted by,

I'm gonna try my best on this one boy

subcontinent sub county or BcM for short uh in the eastern part of Uganda.

The findings indicate that nearly 78% of the participant

got infected with cholera

after drinking from a nearby river called

chip tweet.

And here's a

closer look

oh damn Gonda right there in the center.

Another study showed

50% infection rates

from drinking from a nearby river.

Again,

these outbreaks of cholera are found in low socioeconomic parts

of the globe with four access to plain water.

So it's important to keep that in mind as well

With the population on the rise and without strict measure

to set in place and proper education on the matter.

This will lead to a bigger global epidemic

around the globe that could have a irreversible.

There we go. Get

our

versatile

very visible ripple effects.

Um

there's no next like that. I'm supposed to show.

Now let's take a look at ourselves assuming that everyone in this class is from a

first world country with abundance of clean I

mean with abundance to access to clean water.

Well according to the EU.

An outrage family in these parts of the globe

are wasting over 100 gallons of water a week

and the cause over

900 billions of gallons mostly

100 millions of gallons annually.

It can easy it can be easy to not worry about access to clean water. But

this is far from the case. Well the case of malaria,

cholera and diarrhea

and many other waterborne diseases

might seem at bay

for a first world country like the United States.

This is far from the truth.

The majority of the United States is expected to be affected by climate change.

Climate change which will affect most people

with the rise of violent hurricanes, storms,

temperature fluctuations

according to the U. S. Global Change Research program.

Extreme flooding events and droughts are expected

to increase waterborne pathogens illness by 12%.

Which is an equivalent of nearly 19 million people annually

to conclude these horrifying findings and information.

I would like it to be known that while it's

easy to go about to go about every day in safety

uh we are in and often overlook how luckily we truly

are to be able to have access to clean water.

I hope that I was able to educate you and

increase awareness to the lack of access to clean water

with that in mind, please keep wasting water

to the absolutely absolute minimum, if possible.

At this rate, uh with the combination of

climate change,

access to clean water will start to become a scarcity around the world

and

there will be a sizeable waterborne diseases that will spread in

nearly every part of the of the world is surely shocking.

How access to clean water is often overlook and taken for granted.

Thank you.
