In a small village in Africa, one of the daily routines is for villagers to embark on a long and challenging journey to fetch water from a distant water source. This task, which is typically undertaken by children and women, requires them to traverse dangerous deserts while carrying heavy water buckets for hours. However, the water they collect is often contaminated and may even harbor harmful bacteria.
According to data from the United Nations and the World Health Organization, in developing countries, every 21 seconds, one child and approximately $3.5 million in people die every year from waterborne diseases caused by drinking contaminated water.
Due to freshwater shortages, intensified pollution, and population growth, the situation in developing economies is even worse. Therefore, the increase in the incidence rate of water-borne diseases has greatly stimulated the demand for water purifiers.
The decline in water quality is a serious health hazard. It poses a huge risk to health, leading to various water-borne diseases.
The decline in water quality is the result of the dumping of untreated sewage, chemicals, insecticides, nutrients, and garbage into water bodies by T industry, agricultural, and municipal enterprises. Most of the water supplied by the municipal authorities in the city cannot be safely consumed, and further removal of heavy metals, viruses, cysts, bacteria, and other toxins is needed.
Fortunately, there are numerous individuals, companies, and organizations around the world working tirelessly to change this situation.
One such company is Vortopt, a US-based water purifier brand, which has taken action to contribute towards improving global access to clean water. They have chosen to donate to The Water Project, a non-profit organization dedicated to addressing water-related challenges. The funds donated by Vortopt will be utilized to construct deep wells, install rainwater harvesting systems, and provide essential water quality education.
Vortopt shared, "Our brand envisions a world where everyone has access to pure drinking water, and it is our moral obligation to lend a helping hand to these impoverished regions. We are committed to continuing such initiatives and forging a deep partnership with The Water Project."
To sum up, protecting the world's water resources and ensuring water health is everyone's responsibility. It can begin with small steps, such as minimizing water wastage, purifying even a single drop, or making a financial contribution. As drivers of social and economic progress, companies have the power to make a significant impact. We hope to see more companies following the lead of Vortopt and actively embracing their social responsibility by contributing towards improving global access to clean water. Together, we can not only transform the lives of individual villages but also raise global awareness about water-related challenges.
More about water in Africa
In the East African country of Kenya, the Nairobi River, which flows through the capital city of Nairobi, has been severely polluted and turned black due to the discharge of domestic and production sewage.
Approaching the Nairobi River in Kenya in eastern Africa, one can see that the banks of the river are filled with garbage that people have casually discarded, and the river has also turned black. Local residents told reporters that in the past, they would still swim the river to the other bank, but now considering the pollution situation, it is difficult to cross the river barefoot again.
According to Reuters, many residents living near the banks of the Nairobi River do not have a sewage connection in their homes, so people will directly pour sewage into the river. Some people have expressed that they will throw the bags containing feces directly into the river.
Farmland near the lower reaches of the Nairobi River has also been significantly affected. Mutonga has 30 acres of farmland, mainly growing crops such as spinach and amaranth. Due to the use of polluted river water for irrigation, crop yields have decreased.
