Name five different types of cosmetic surgery and discuss why people select these procedures.

"have a face lift" = a surgical procedure in which doctors tighten the skin on the face to remove wrinkles
" I'm sure that the actress had a facelift so would look younger than she really is."

"nose job" = an operation to improve the appearance of one's nose
" He's considering a nose job because he says people always comment on his nose."

A. Listen to the recording and answer the questions.

Do research on an organization that provides medical services, particularly cosmetic surgery, to people in developing countries. Report on the organization's mission, the regions of the world where the organization has performed such care, and how everyday people can become involved. Would you consider volunteering if you had the expertise to perform cosmetic procedures for the needy?

'All life deserves respect, dignity and compassion. All life.' - Anthony Douglas Williams

What is veganism and what do vegans do?

Vegans try to live, as much as possible, in a way that avoids exploiting and being cruel to animals. This means following a plant-based diet. Vegans do not eat animals or animal-based products like meat, fish, seafood, eggs, honey and dairy products such as cheese. For many vegans, living a committed vegan lifestyle means not wearing clothes made from animal skins and avoiding any products which have been tested on animals.

How are vegans different from vegetarians?

Vegetarians don't eat meat or fish but they can eat eggs, honey and dairy products, but vegans don't eat any animal-based food products. Vegans argue that suffering is caused in the production of these foods, for example they say that, on some dairy farms, male calves are killed because they are too expensive to keep, and on some farms, cows are killed when they get older and produce less milk. Similarly, on some egg farms, male chicks are killed because they do not produce eggs. As for honey, vegans say that bees make honey for bees, not for humans, and that bees' health can suffer when humans take the honey from them. Vegans believe that the products they use and consume should be free from not just cruelty but any exploitation of animals.

When did veganism start?

The Vegan Society was founded in 1944, but there is evidence of people deciding not to consume animal products over 2,000 years ago. The sixth-century BC Greek mathematician and philosopher Pythagoras was in favour of kindness to all species, and his diet could be described as vegetarian. There was a tradition of vegetarianism in the Indus Valley, Babylonian and ancient Egyptian civilisations even earlier. The Vegan Society points out that in 1806, the famous romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley was one of the first people to publicly object to eating eggs and dairy products on moral grounds.

Why do many people decide to become vegan?

For many people, the main reason for going vegan is probably that they believe that animals and all other sentient beings should have the right to life and freedom. However, there are other reasons. Vegans argue that the production of meat and other animal products is very bad for the environment. They point out that a huge quantity of water is needed to grow grain to feed animals in the meat industry. The enormous amount of grain which the meat industry needs often leads to forests being cut down and habitats being lost. In contrast, much lower quantities of grain and water are needed to sustain a vegan diet. In addition, many vegans say that all the nutrients our bodies need are contained in a carefully planned vegan diet and that this type of diet helps prevent some diseases.

What is World Vegan Day?

On 1 November every year, vegans all over the world celebrate their way of life. There are workshops, exhibitions and public debates on World Vegan Day, and it is a wonderful opportunity for anybody thinking of becoming a vegan to learn more about the subject.

How the Food You Eat Affects Your Brain is a TED-Ed lesson that students and teachers can benefit from watching. The lesson is good one watch at this time of year when many of us are switching back to eating on a school lunch schedule instead of our summer eating schedules.

By watching How the Food You Eat Affects Your Brain viewers can learn about the roles of amino acids, antioxidants, and glucose in brain function. Perhaps more important for the average viewer of the video is the information about the types of foods that we should eat to maintain optimal brain function throughout the day. Spoiler alert! White bread is bad, oatmeal is good!

A good follow-up to having your students watch this TED-Ed lesson is to have them brainstorm (see what I did there?) a list of the foods that will help them maintain good brain function throughout the day and then have them make a list of the foods to avoid.

Coffee has been at the centre of our social lives in one form or another since the mid 14th century. Although no one is certain about its exact origins, there are many legends about its discovery, and all of them emphasise how quickly the beverage became an integral part of the cultures it spread into.

The word 'coffee' has Arabic origins

The word 'coffee' comes from the Arabic word qahwah, which originally referred to a type of wine.

There are a number of theories among linguists about the word's current association with coffee. Many believe that like wine, caffeine has an intoxicating effect, but qahwah can also be traced to the Arabic word quwwa, which means power/energy, or qaha which translates to 'lacking hunger' and could reference coffee as an appetite suppressant. Another theory is that it originates from Kaffa, a kingdom in medieval Ethiopia from where the coffee plant was first exported to Arabia.

Nobody is sure who first discovered coffee

There are a number of different accounts about who first discovered coffee. Some records trace the origin to a goat herder named Kaldi in Kaffa, Ethiopia in the 9th century. Kaldi noticed how active his flock became after munching red beans from a coffee plant, and then tried some himself and felt a lot more active.

Another similar account states that a Moroccan Sufi mystic, Ghothul Akbar Nooruddin Abu al-Hasan al-Shadhili, was once traveling through Ethiopia and observed unusually active birds. When he noticed they were all eating a specific bean, he tried a few himself and and quickly regained vitality.

People didn't make a drink out of coffee beans for years

The general consensus is that the plant was first discovered in Ethiopia in mid AD 800, when people simply chewed the berries. It wasn't until the 15th century that traders from across the sea - precisely, Yemen - decided to boil the beans and make a drink out of it.

The oldest accounts of coffee-drinking trace back to Yemen

During the 15th century, Sufi monks would drink the beverage to improve concentration, prayers and stay alert through the night in worship.

This is probably where the word qahwa - which then meant wine in Arabic - began to be associated with coffee for inducing what was considered a level of intoxication.

For centuries, coffee was primarily consumed in the Islamic world

For over 100 years, Yemeni farmers grew distinct and flavourful coffee beans and, by the 16th century, the local coffee gained regional momentum and spread through the rest of Arabia, Turkey and Persia. It was usually consumed in religious contexts.

Coffee has always been an important way of socialising

Public coffee houses, usually associated with Sufism, first gained popularity in the 16th century. The first coffee houses opened in Cairo, Egypt, around an important religious university and slowly spread throughout the region.

People would visit these venues to drink coffee, listen to music, play chess and talk about current affairs and religion.

Soon, coffee houses became so essential as sources to share and receive information that they were referred to as 'Schools of the Wise'.

Coffee was once banned in Mecca

The drink became so popular in the Arab world in its early days for its 'intoxicating' effect that it became known as the 'wine of Arabia' and was, in fact, banned by religious scholars in Mecca in 1511. The ban was later overturned by the Ottoman ruler of his time in 1524.

It was also banned by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church

Coffee was banned by the church because it was considered a 'Muslim drink'. Ethiopian attitudes started softening towards coffee drinking in the early 19th century and, over time, the beverage was no longer associated with Islam.

Coffee first reached Europe in the 16th century

Coffee reached Europe via the island of Malta through Turkish Muslim slaves. It quickly gained popularity among members of Maltese high society and many coffee shops were opened.

Coffee reached mainland Europe through Venice

Venetian merchants on the trade route between the Republic of Venice and the Arab world introduced coffee to mainland Europe. The merchants introduced coffee to the wealthier societies and charged them highly for the drink. The first mainland European coffee house was opened in Venice in 1645.

Even in the best cases, traveling alone can get lonely. Here's how to connect safely with the people you meet along the way.

Image

Lars Leetaru

Experiencing another culture on your own terms, at your own pace, with a budget of your own choosing can be an incredibly rewarding and insightful adventure. But while some may find such a journey liberating, others might worry about safety or a period of solitude in a strange, unfamiliar place. Humans, after all, are social animals.

Prospective solo travelers should know that, despite its label, solo travel does not have to mean you're alone all the time. There are local communities to safely interact with as well as fellow globe-trotters in a similar position.

A 2016 report from travel research company Phocuswright found that a whopping 72 percent of hostel guests in the United States were traveling alone. Airbnb saw similar a trend in its data, with cities like Ho Chi Minh City, Cologne, and Johannesburg experiencing more than a 130 percent increase in individual bookings in 2016.

With solo traveling growing in popularity, it's clear there are options to socialize with other travelers - it's just a matter of putting yourself in the right position to do so. Here are some tactics you can use to meet and befriend people abroad, from tried-and-true methods to innovative new apps and technology.

The word free is in quotations because, assuming your tour guide is at least half-decent, you should tip them at the end (many earn the majority of their income on commission). But these walking tours can be worth every penny. Not only will the guide give you an informed and hopefully entertaining view of the locale, but you'll have a chance to interact with other tourists and possibly come away with a new friend.

The leisurely pace in between stops gives you the opportunity to chat with fellow tour-goers, who you may discover are also traveling alone or as part of a small group they're willing to let you join. Prominent cities often have multiple specialized tours - street art or local cuisine, for example - which provide additional chances to meet people and further learn about the place hosting you.

Several tour companies, like Sandeman's New Europe or Free Tours by Foot, have outposts in popular cities and are generally safe options for the solo traveler. But don't count out smaller or independent tour companies that may be better tailored to specific destinations. Visit the company website and read reviews left by travelers to make sure everything checks out. You can also look at ratings on separate websites like TripAdvisor for a more comprehensive view.

If you're staying in a hostel, the staff often has relationships with tour companies in the city. A hotel receptionist or concierge would also have recommendations.

More on traveling solo safely

Airbnb may be known more for its lodging arrangements, but it also wants to give you something to do at your destination. Airbnb Experiences connects travelers with local guides who lead guests on paid activities ranging from city tours to bar crawls and hobby and skill classes. Launched in late 2016, Experiences quickly became a popular feature.

So what's the appeal? Similar to walking tours, Airbnb Experiences can be a fun way to mingle with fellow sightseers while gaining firsthand knowledge from experienced locals. And while you do have to pay upfront, costs usually cover expenses like transportation, food, drinks or equipment. Each booking page includes information from the host on what items they'll provide, as well as what items you should bring, like activity-specific clothing or extra cash (for souvenirs, for example).

Since Experiences is embedded on the standard Airbnb platform, you'll want to show the same caution when booking activities as you would with booking housing. Make sure to read through the description and photos carefully and pay attention to the Experience's rating and reviews (Airbnb has neat little trophies visible on the page if the Experience has been rated five stars by a certain number of people.) If you have any questions or concerns, Airbnb will put you in touch with the host through its messaging system even if you haven't booked the activity yet.

Prefer to cut out the middleman and connect directly with other travelers? Try your hand at the crop of social networking apps specifically designed for travel. Travello, free on iOS and Android, allows you to discover other travelers nearby, match itineraries for planned trips and join groups based on similar interests. You can also create a feed by posting photos and updates.

Tourlina, also free on iOS and Android, is exclusively for women and operates a lot like a dating app by swiping on potential travel companions with similar itineraries and timing. Women can also use the dating app Bumble's BFF feature to meet platonic companions in the area. Other social media apps are 0ol options, with region-specific Facebook groups and subreddits to engage with travelers, expats, and locals in your destination of choice.

As with any first encounter brokered through social media, use caution when meeting people in real life. Meet in public spaces and consider video chatting beforehand. Travello also has a block/report feature if anyone conducts themselves inappropriately, resulting in an immediate ban from the app.

52 places and much, much more

In a world of hospitable hotels and authentic Airbnbs, why do travelers elect to stay in hostels? Two reasons, really: Hostels are cheap and sociable. You'll find college-esque dormitories with common lounge rooms and kitchens, and sometimes a bar or cafe.

It's an ideal environment to meet other travelers, and hostel staffs are well aware of this - some will lead city tours or pub crawls designed to foster interaction between hostel mates. Others might host game nights in the common room or arrange family dinners.

Popular booking sites include Hostelworld, Hostelz, Hostels.com, and Hostelbookers, and all feature reviews and detailed information about available amenities and each hostel's location. Novice solo travelers may want to consider staying near the city center for a convenient and safe option. During your research, pay attention to which hostels struck a chord with solo travelers in particular - those likely facilitate group activities and also provide good security for individuals. Female solo travelers can also often stay in female-only dorms.

Hostels are perhaps the quintessential way for young people to travel, but you'll find all types of ages and backgrounds in one. And though the image of the lone backpacker bouncing from hostel to hostel has endured for decades, the data suggests the trend is more popular than ever.

Cypriots are envied for lots of things, but mostly because of their amazing country: having limpid turquoise waters right under their feet, enjoying a summer spanning almost six months and being surrounded by a magnificent natural environment, Cypriots are scarcely exaggerating when they refer to their homeland as a heaven on earth.

Ideally located and easily accessible, Cyprus is basically an array of consecutive dreamy beaches of diverse character but equal charm.

Wish to know beforehand some of the greatest beaches to visit in Cyprus? Check our top ten list below!

A vivid splash of green alongside the road gives its place to white powdery sand, which in turn transitions gradually to a deep emerald colour, yet transparent enough to see the seabed. No, it's not a famous painting. It's a beach. Konnos Bay Beach in Ayia Napa. Aren't you there yet?

Of course, we could not help but mention the famous beach where Goddess Aphrodite rose from the water. The shore in this beach is pebbled, and the waters are often a little turbulent, but there is no better place to be if you are vacationing with your spouse. Some of the most breathtaking sunsets can be witnessed here.

For those who don't like to swim in packed with people beaches, Porto Pomos is the "go to" destination. Located on the wild west coast of the island, with just a few small huts offering refreshments, Porto Pomos offers privacy, crystal clear waters and unspoilt natural scenery.

This hidden gem can be found deep in the nature reserve of Akamas Peninsula. If you are an adventurous type, then you simply have to see this one from up close. Hire out a 4x4 and start your quest of finding the impressive Lara Bay. The rare loggerhead turtle has already found it!

Paramali Beach is a beach with strong winds, which make it an ideal choice for kitesurfing. So, if you're picturing yourself hitting the waves instead of reading a book on the beach, then hit the Paramali Beach in Limassol!

Every local in Protaras knows this place. It's a small bay, away from the main road, yet it has this something that made it popular, especially among young Cypriots.

A family-friendly beach could not be missing from our list. And this is Coral Bay in Paphos. It's a long sandy beach with shallow waters, ideal for the kids. Have in mind though that it gets really packed in mid-summer months.

One of Larnaca's hot spots. Mojitos, frappes, loud music and young people. An array of beach bars surrounds the beach, making it almost impossible not finding your perfect spot.

Do you love diving directly into the deep blue sea from rocky formations? White Rocks await you in Limassol. Here you can enjoy privacy, peace of mind, and fresh fish dishes at the nearby restaurants.

Perhaps the most widely acclaimed beach in Ayia Napa, the town that never sleeps in Cyprus. The beat of this beach is loud, the young fashionistas that show off their tan, bikinis and racket abilities plenty and the water activities go wild. It is the ideal place to meet new people and have fun!

It is clear that, regardless of the type of traveller you consider yourself to be, you will find a spotless beach suiting your whims in Cyprus. Tranquility and leisure, modern and buzzing, Cypriot beaches are sure to refresh your body and soul. Visit our website to learn more about Cyprus and plan the most unforgettable holidays of your life!

Fighting Plastic Pollution in Cyprus: The Responsible Beach Bars Initiative

Project "Fighting plastic pollution in Cyprus: The Responsible Beach Bars Initiative" has been recognised as an innovative social initiative and therefore awarded by Beyond Plastic Med organisation ( http://www.beyondplasticmed.org/).

This initiative aims to engage beach bars, snack shacks and beach restaurants (henceforth called beach bars), strewn around Cypriot beaches, to take ownership of 'their' stretch of beach in order to protect it and minimise the amount of marine litter, and especially plastic, left on it by their customers and in general beach goers.

The initiative, and particularly the outcomes of the Responsible Coastal Businesses award, was the focus of CYBC's 'Spiti sti Fisi' (Home in Nature) show which aired in October 2018. You can see the entire broadcast (in Greek) below:

Timeline of Project Activities

The Initiative was launched on 28 June 2017 in Paphos, in the presence of His Excellency the Spanish Ambassador in Cyprus, Mr Angel Lossada, and the Mayor of Yeroskipou. The launch event included a beach cleanup with the participation of students from Paphos Technical School and other volunteers, as well as informational campaign to the beach bars of the area.

The highlights from the Launch Event are presented in this short video:
Some photographs from the launch Event are available here. The Event was also covered by CYBC news, and you can see the relevant Video here.
Project "Fighting plastic pollution in Cyprus: The Responsible Beach Bars Initiative" will achieve its aims through six interrelated activities, which are presented below.

(1) Organisation and implementation of a workshop bringing together stakeholders from around the island to record their opinions and views with regards to plastic waste, to identify the problems they face with regards to its management and to pinpoint easy to implement and effective solutions for its management.

Three workshops were organised within the framework of the project: one with the local authorities responsible for Blue Flag beaches in Cyprus, one in Paphos with key stakeholders and one in Nicosia with the collaboration of the Spanish, Italian and Portuguese embassies on the island.

(2) Development of a concise but comprehensive guide for beach bars outlining the practices that they can implement to minimise plastic waste;
Guide for Responsible Beach Bars
(3) Awareness-raising campaign in the summer of 2017 targeting all beach bars on the island, where the Guide and a Decalogue of Good Practice will be disseminated.

The awareness-raising campaign involved visiting beach bars around the island, sharing information about marine litter and encouraging them to become members of the Responsible Beach Bars Network, by adhering to the Decalogue of Good Practice ( Decalogo EN_F Decalogo GR_F).
The Responsible Beach Bars Network Members are visible on this Map. Selected photos from the Beach Bar Visits are available here.
(4) Launch a competition for sustainable practices implemented by beach bars around Cyprus.

The competition was launched in March 2018, in collaboration with the Pancyprian Association of Entertainment Venue Owners (PASIKA). The deadline for the competition was the 31 March 2018.

All the competition documents can be found here (in Greek):
Competition Description Best Practice Examples Application Form
(5) Organise an awards ceremony for the winning beach bars.

The Awards Ceremony, which took place on 24 April 2018 on board the vessel M/V DOREMI, was a great success. In addition to the awarded beach bars, attendees included the Mayor of Larnaca, Mr Andreas Vyras, His Excellency the Ambassador of Spain, Mr Angel Lossada, Her Excellency the Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Ms Nathalie Jaarsma, representatives from the British High Commission and other distinguished guests, including representatives of the Cyprus Association of Recreation Venue Owners.

There was extensive coverage of the ceremony in local media (both online and print), including CYBC's morning news broadcast (click here to view the broadcast clip).

AKTI developed the following highlights video of the award ceremony:

People celebrate World Environment Day (WED) in many different ways all over the world: planting trees, cleaning up local beaches, organising meetings, joining online protests. Each year the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) chooses a particular issue to focus on. One year it might be forests, another year it might be wildlife. And each year there is a new host; a city which is the centre point for all the celebrations.

How it first started

The United Nations (UN) named 5 June as international World Environment Day at the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment in 1972. The idea was to draw attention to the many problems that are facing our environment. They wanted to include as many people, organisations and governments, both local and national, as possible. They wanted to show that positive change is possible when people work together to fight for a common cause.

The first World Environment Day

The first WED was celebrated in 1974 in the city of Spokane in the USA. The slogan for that first year was 'Only One Earth' and it was celebrated with the world's first world fair to be dedicated to the environment. The exhibition lasted for six months.

The hosts

Since 1974 the WED has been hosted by 34 different cities in 25 different countries around the world, from Cuba to Korea, from Belgium to Brazil. Some countries have hosted the main celebrations two or more times, including Bangladesh, Canada and China. But that doesn't mean that all the celebrations take place in the host country. Every year people from all over the world take part in a huge number of different events to draw attention to the main issue.

The issues

Each year the celebrations focus on a particular problem. Over the last ten years key issues have included wildlife, forests and plastic waste, among other things. Each issue has a slogan. Past slogans include 'Think. Eat. Save.', which asked people to think about the issue of food waste, and 'Raise your voice, not the sea level', to focus on the effect that global warming is having on small island nations around the world. As well as slogans, hashtags have become important for the campaigns too. In a recent campaign the hashtag #WildforLife became a strong symbol for the fight against all kinds of illegal trading in plants and animals.

What you can do

If you want to take part in the celebrations, or support this year's special cause, here are some things that you can do. You can visit the official website to find out what this year's slogan is. You can search for the slogan online to find organisations and events in your area or online. You can share information about the cause and the events on social media or form a local action group of your own and organise an event in your community. Whatever you do, you won't be alone. Millions of people all around the world will be joining the celebrations and fighting for a better future for our planet.

Water. It's life's most basic need. But there's a water crisis in our world right now. Seriously, a crisis. Nearly one billion people live without clean drinking water. It's happening all over the world, especially in developing areas of Sub-Saharan Africa, South-East Asia and Latin America.

Tardigrades are an ancient group of animals. The earliest fossil evidence of tardigrades dates to over 500 million years ago. There are around 1,200 species of tardigrades that have been discovered, and new species are still being discovered. There are two main lineages, eutardigrades, which live mainly on land, and heterotardigrades, some of which live on land while others live in marine environments. Marine tardigrades are not known to be desiccation tolerant, while this is common in eutardigrades and some terrestrial heterotardigrades.

Tardigrades are renowned for their ability to survive a number of extreme stresses, such as drying, freezing, irradiation, and even the vacuum of outer space, but this might not actually be the weirdest thing about them. In 2016, Dr. Frank Smith discovered that tardigrades are essentially " walking heads," with bodies made up of segments that are homologous to the head segments of their cousins, the arthropods (e.g., insects and crustaceans).

Tardigrades can be found almost anywhere, from Antarctica to your own backyard. It is thought that tardigrades get to all these different places by being swept up by wind currents when they are dry and then deposited somewhere far away. If you have a microscope, it is actually fairly easy to find your own wild tardigrades.

Different tardigrade species reproduce in different ways. Some species have males and females that reproduce sexually, while other species do not have males--females produce eggs that do not need to be fertilized to develop.

The Earth is a watery place. In fact, 71 percent of our planet is covered in water [ 1]. Despite this, one in nine people do not have access to safe drinking water - that's around 785 million people [ 2].

The trouble is, 96.5 percent of all Earth's water is found in the oceans in the form of saline water, and is not drinkable for humans. That only leaves us with rivers, lakes, and groundwater to satisfy our water needs [1].

According to the World Economic Forum, the global water crisis ranks as the number four risk in terms of impact on society [ 3]. Let's face it - humans need water to survive.

If you're reading this from Canada or the United States, you may not understand this crisis on a personal level. After all, you can turn on a tap and have safe drinking water instantly start flowing from the faucet. This, however, is not the case for billions of people living on other continents. One NGO (Non-Government Organization) is trying to change that.

GivePower

Give Power's mission is to install solar energy technologies that will bring essential services to developing communities in need [ 4]. Their most recent break-through project installed a solar-powered desalination system to bring clean, healthy water to the people in Kiunga, a rural village in Kenya [4].

With this technology, the salty ocean water will now be a viable source of water for the people living in this village. The system is capable of producing about 70 thousand litres or drinkable water every day, which is enough for up to 35 thousand people [4].

The Global Water Crisis

This ground-breaking new process could not come any sooner. The 785 million people mentioned earlier is just beginning. According to the World Health Organization, around 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have access to safely-managed water services, 4.2 billion people do not have safely managed sanitation services, and three-thousand-million lack basic facilities for washing hands [ 9].

This means that even those who do have a source of freshwater nearby may not be able to drink it because it does not get adequately cleaned.

This is particularly true for people in poor or rural areas. Data shows that eight out of ten people living in rural areas lacked access to basic sanitation services, and coverage of basic services among the richest groups was at least twice as high as the poorest [9].

Desalination: Then and Now

Desalination is a process wherein salts and other minerals are separated from your water. To do this, you have to force the water through a membrane (think of it like an extraordinarily fine sieve) [ 5].

The trouble is, any solution (water included) likes to stay balanced. It naturally wants to have equal amounts of water, salt, and minerals on either side of the membrane. This is called osmotic pressure [ 6]. In order to remove the salt and minerals from the water, you have to overcome this force, which requires immense amounts of energy [5].

Traditional desalination processes also require large amounts of chemicals, including pH adjusters, coagulants and flocculants, deposit control agents (antiscalants, dispersants), biocides and reducing chemicals. In post-treatment, chemicals include chlorine, anti-corrosion additives and compounds for remineralization [ 7].

GivePower has solved these problems through a new technology called "solar water farms" [ 8]. The system uses solar panels that produce fifty kilowatts of energy, the energy is stored by two high-performance Tesla batteries, and it uses two water pumps that operate 24 hours per day [8].

The quality of water it produces is better than that of a typical water desalination plant, and does not produce the saline residues and pollutants they create which are harmful to animals and the environment [8].

Changes Lives in Kiunga

Before GivePower installed their new solar-powered desalination system, the people of Kiunga, Kenya, had to travel for one hour to reach their only source of water. This water came from a well that was located on the same channel that animals use for bathing, and was full of pollutants and parasites [8].

This was the only water for them to drink, bathe, and wash their belongings.

"They were basically poisoning their families with this water," says Hayes Barnard, president of GivePower [8].

Now, the 3 500 residents of Kiunga have fresh, safe drinking water coming straight from a tap.

Water for the World

After the profound success of the pilot project in Kiunga, GivePower plans to build more plants to relieve water scarcity in other parts of the world. They have already installed solar panels in 2 500 schools, businesses, and emergency services in seventeen countries, and are raising funds to build more "solar water farms" [8].

With this new technology, a future where water is accessible to everyone may be within reach.

On April 15, 1912 the RMS Titanic tragically sank to the bottom of the sea. 73 years later, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Dr. Robert Ballard and his team discovered the famed liner's remains. In this National Geographic segment, Dr. Ballard describes how he gathered support to find the Titanic, the moment of its discovery and the mission to preserve its legacy.

The Titanic was a British passenger ship. It was built by a company called Harland and Wolff ship builders in Belfast. When it was built, many people thought it would be almost impossible for it to sink. At 11:40 PM, on 14 April 1912, the Titanic collided with an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean. The iceberg damaged the bottom of the Titanic and water went into the ship. The Titanic sank two hours and forty minutes later at 2:20 AM on 15 April.

The Titanic broke in two pieces as it sank. More than 1,500 people died. Only about 705 people survived. It was a terrible accident. One reason why so many people died was because the ship only had 20 lifeboats. Women and children were allowed on the lifeboats first, and passengers who sailed in first class (which meant that they paid for better rooms on the ship) were allowed to leave the ship before other passengers. Another reason why so many people died was that a ship close to the Titanic had its radio turned off. The people on that ship did not hear about the accident and they did not come to help.
