Unsafe water is a leading risk factor for death

Unsafe water is one of the world's largest health and environmental problems - particularly for the poorest in the world.

The Global Burden of Disease is a major global study on the causes and risk factors for death and disease published in the medical journal The Lancet.¹ These estimates of the annual number of deaths attributed to a wide range of risk factors are shown here. This chart is shown for the global total, but can be explored for any country or region using the "change country" toggle.

Lack of access to safe water sources is a leading risk factor for infectious diseases, including cholera, diarrhoea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid and polio.² It also exacerbates malnutrition, and in particular, childhood stunting. In the chart we see that it ranks as a very important risk factor for death globally.

According to the Global Burden of Disease study 1.2 million people died prematurely in 2017 as a result of unsafe water. To put this into context: this was three times the number of homicides in 2017; and equal to the number that died in road accidents globally.

The global distribution of deaths from unsafe water

An estimated 1.2 million people died as a result of unsafe water sources in 2017. This was 2.2% of global deaths.

In low-income countries, it accounts for 6% of deaths.

In the map here we see the share of annual deaths attributed to unsafe water across the world. In 2017 this ranged from a high of 14% in Chad - around 1-in-7 deaths - to less than 0.01% across most of Europe.

When we compare the share of deaths attributed to unsafe water either over time or between countries, we are not only comparing the extent of water access, but its severity in the context of other risk factors for death. Clean water's share does not only depend on how many die prematurely from it, but what else people are dying from and how this is changing.

Death rates from unsafe water sources give us an accurate comparison of differences in its mortality impacts between countries and over time. In contrast to the share of deaths that we studied before, death rates are not influenced by how other causes or risk factors for death are changing.

In this map we see death rates from unsafe water sources across the world. Death rates measure the number of deaths per 100,000 people in a given country or region.

What becomes clear is the large differences in death rates between countries: rates are high in lower-income countries, particularly across Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. Rates here are often greater than 50 deaths per 100,000 - in the Central African Republic and Chad this was over 100 per 100,000.

Compare this with death rates across high-income countries: across Europe rates are below 0.1 deaths per 100,000. That's a greater than 1000-fold difference.

The issue of unsafe sanitation is therefore one which is largely limited to low and lower-middle income countries.

We see this relationship clearly when we plot death rates versus income, as shown here. There is a strong negative relationship: death rates decline as countries get richer.

Access to safe drinking water

SDG Target 6.1 is to : "achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all" by 2030.

Where are we today? In 2020, almost three-quarters (74%) of the world population had access to a safely managed water source. One-in-four people do not have access to safe drinking water.

In the chart we see the breakdown of drinking water access globally, and across regions and income groups. We see that in countries at the lowest incomes, less than one-third of the population have safe water. Most live in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Are we making progress? The world has made progress in the last five years. Unfortunately, this has been very slow. In 2015 (at the start of the SDGs) only 70% of the global population had safe drinking water. That means we've seen an increase of four percentage points over five years.

This is obviously far too slow to reach universal access by 2030. If progress continues at these rates, we would only reach 82% by 2030. If we're to meet our target we need to see rates of progress more than triple (increase 3.2-fold) for the coming decade.³

In the map shown we see the share of people across the world that have access to safe drinking water.

How many people do not have access to safe drinking water?

In the map shown we see the number of people across the world that do not have access to safe drinking water.

Access to improved water sources

The definition of an improved drinking water source includes "piped water on premises (piped household water connection located inside the user's dwelling, plot or yard), and other improved drinking water sources (public taps or standpipes, tube wells or boreholes, protected dug wells, protected springs, and rainwater collection)." Note that access to drinking water from an improved source does not ensure that the water is safe or adequate, as these characteristics are not tested at the time of survey. But improved drinking water technologies are more likely than those characterized as unimproved to provide safe drinking water and to prevent contact with human excreta.

In 2020, 6% of the world population did not have access to an improved water source.

In the map shown we see the share of people across the world that do not have access to improved water sources.

How many people don't have access to an improved water source?

In the map shown we see the number of people across the world that do not have access to an improved water source.

What determines levels of clean water access?

Access to improved water sources increases with income

The visualisation shows the relationship between access to improved water sources versus gross domestic product (GDP) per capita. We see that there is a general link between income and freshwater access.

Typically most countries with greater than 90% of households with improved water have an average GDP per capita of more than $10,000-15,000. Those at lower incomes tend to have a larger share of the population without access.

Although income is an important determinant, the range of levels of access which occur across countries of similar prosperity further support the suggestion that there are other important governance and infrastructural factors which contribute.

Rural households often lag behind on water access

In addition to the large inequalities in water access between countries, there are can also be large differences within country. In the charts we have plotted the share of the urban versus rural population with access to improved water sources and safely managed drinking water, respectively. Here we have also shown a line of parity; is a country lies along this line then access in rural and urban areas is equal.

Since nearly all points lie above this line, with very few exceptions, access to improved water sources is greater in urban areas relative to rural populations. This may be partly attributed to an income effect; urbanization is a trend strongly related to economic growth.⁴

The infrastructural challenges of developing municipal water networks in rural areas is also likely to play an important role in lower access levels relative to urbanised populations.

Improved water source: "An improved drinking water source includes piped water on premises (piped household water connection located inside the user's dwelling, plot or yard), and other improved drinking water sources (public taps or standpipes, tube wells or boreholes, protected dug wells, protected springs, and rainwater collection)."

Access to drinking water from an improved source does not ensure that the water is safe or adequate, as these characteristics are not tested at the time of survey. But improved drinking water technologies are more likely than those characterized as unimproved to provide safe drinking water and to prevent contact with human excreta. While information on access to an improved water source is widely used, it is extremely subjective, and such terms as safe, improved, adequate, and reasonable may have different meanings in different countries despite official WHO definitions. Even in high-income countries treated water may not always be safe to drink. Access to an improved water source is equated with connection to a supply system; it does not take into account variations in the quality and cost (broadly defined) of the service." ⁵

Safely managed drinking water: "Safely managed drinking water" is defined as an "Improved source located on premises, available when needed, and free from microbiological and priority chemical contamination."

'Basic' drinking water source: an "Improved source within 30 minutes round trip collection time."

'Limited' drinking water source: "Improved source over 30 minutes round trip collection time."

' Unimproved' drinking water source: "Unimproved source that does not protect against contamination."

'No service': access to surface water only.

Are Libraries still relevant?

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.provider_name
Pew Research Center: Internet, Science & Tech

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Most Americans believe libraries do a decent job of serving the education and learning needs of their communities and their own families. A new survey by Pew Research Center shows that 76% of adults say libraries serve the learning and educational needs of their communities either "very well" (37%) or "pretty well" (39%). Further, 71% say libraries serve their own personal needs and the needs of their families "very well" or "pretty well."

As a rule, libraries' performance in learning arenas gets better marks from women, blacks, Hispanics, those in lower-income households, and those ages 30 and older.

At the same time, many do not know that libraries offer learning-related programs and materials such as e-books, career and job resources, and high school certification courses.

Library users think of themselves as lifelong learners

Additionally, these views arise in a context where strong majorities of adults consider themselves "lifelong learners" and libraries around the country are working to fit their programs and services into local educational ecosystems - both the formal parts of it (such as schools) and the informal parts of it (such as "do it yourself" learning opportunities). A recent Pew Research report found that 73% of adults say the label "lifelong learner" applies "very well" to them. Additionally, 74% of adults have participated in personal learning experiences of various kinds in the previous 12 months - we call them personal learners. And 63% of full- and part-time workers have taken courses or done training on the job to improve their skills in the past year - we called them professional learners.

Recent library users overwhelmingly embrace those ideas and activities. Fully 97% of those who used a library or bookmobile in the past 12 months say that the term "lifelong learner" applies "very well" or "pretty well" to them and a similar share of library website users (98%) also strongly identified with being lifelong learners.

Moreover, 84% of those who visited a library in the past 12 months fit our definition of personal learner, compared with 66% of those who had not recently visited a library or bookmobile. Recent library users are more likely than others to read "how to" publications, take courses related to personal interests, attend learning-related events and meetings, and take online courses.

Interestingly, among workers, recent library users are no more likely than others to fall into the category of professional learners.

Library usage continues to evolve

In addition to examining the role of libraries as contributors to people's learning, this survey also continued the Center's benchmarking of library usage. Some 78% of adults say they have ever gone to a library, while 44% say they went to a library or bookmobile in the past 12 months.

The findings indicate a downward drift in the number of those who use physical library facilities in any given year. In our first survey on this in November 2012, 53% of adults had visited a library or bookmobile in the past 12 months.

Over the same period, the use of library websites has leveled off. In 2013, 30% of adults had used a library website over the past 12 months, while the new finding is that 31% have done so in the past year. Additionally, we found that 9% of adults had used a library-related app in the past 12 months - a first time reading for this question.

Notable shares of Americans do not know that libraries offer learning-related programs and materials

A significant number of libraries have added education- and learning-related material, often in digital form or available on the internet. This survey shows that a portion of adults are aware of those activities, but many do not know about them, including:

E-book borrowing: Fully 90% of public libraries have e-book lending programs, according to Information Policy and Access Center (IPAC) at the University of Maryland, and 62% of adults say they know that their local libraries have such programs. At the same time, 22% say they do not know whether e-book lending is done by their libraries and another 16% say it is not done by their community libraries.

Online career and job-related resources: Some 62% of local libraries offer such resources, according to IPAC, and 41% of adults in our survey say they know their local libraries have such material. Still, 38% say they do not know if such resources are offered by their local libraries and another 21% say their libraries do not offer career- and job-related resources.

Online GED or high school equivalency classes: Some 35% of local libraries offer GED prep courses and materials, according to IPAC, and 26% of adults say they know their local libraries offer such programs. Yet nearly half (47%) say they do not know if such programs are offered by their local libraries and another 27% say these kinds of classes are not available in their communities.

Programs on starting a new business: Some 33% of local libraries offer such programs, according to IPAC, and 24% of adults say their local libraries offer programs on starting a new business. About half (47%) say they do not know if their local libraries do that and another 28% say their public libraries do not offer programs for starting a new business.

Online programs that certify that people have mastered new skills: 24% of adults say their local libraries offer such programs. However, about half of adults (49%) say they do not know if such programs are being offered and another 27% say they are not offered by their local libraries. There are no data about how many libraries offer such programs.

Secondhand Stores & Sustainability

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Resale is on the move, people! From big retailers to small retailers, seed stage investors to large buyout firms, and from the New York Times to Netflix, everyone seems to be talking about the future of resale. Part of me says, "It's about time!" but the other part says, "Everybody slow your roll!" Like all major movements and category disruptions, mainstream adoption happens over time, and this category is just getting started.

The last few years of growth in the resale market have been driven by the early adopters (the same ones who first adopted Airbnb or Lyft or DoorDash), but now the skeptics are starting to come around. At thredUP, we're seeing first-time thrifters coming to platforms like ours in droves. Not surprisingly, the younger generations are leading this charge, with millennials and Gen Z adopting secondhand 2.5x faster than other age groups.

Even traditional retailers are starting to embrace secondhand. The resale customer is no longer somebody else's customer, they are everybody's customer. Mass market or luxury, if people can find a high-quality product for much less, they'll choose used. As the line between new and used apparel blurs for consumers, a powerful transformation in retail will unfold.

The resale customer is no longer somebody else's customer, they are everybody's customer. Mass market or luxury, if people can find a high-quality product for much less, they'll choose used.

I've never been more excited about resale's potential to delight customers and help create a more sustainable future. We hope you enjoy reading our 2019 Resale Report as much as we've enjoyed pulling it together. We believe this year, more than ever, the data speaks for itself.

Onward.

thredUP's Annual Resale Report contains research & data from GlobalData, a third-party retail analytics firm. GlobalData's assessment of the secondhand market is determined through consumer surveys, retailer tracking, official public data, data sharing, store observation, and secondary sources. These inputs are used by analysts to model and calculate market sizes, channel sizes, and market shares. Further, for the purpose of this report, GlobalData conducted a January 2019 survey of 2,000 American women over 18, asking specific questions about their behaviors and preferences for secondhand. thredUP's Resale Report also leverages data from the following sources: Green Story Research, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a survey of Senior Retail Executives, internal thredUP customer and brand performance data, and fashion insights from EDITED. View all sources here.

Definitions:

Secondhand: Consumption of all used apparel. Includes both the Resale sector and the Thrift & Donation sector.

Donation & Thrift: A sector of the broader 'secondhand' market that includes traditional options such as Goodwill, Salvation Army, and yard sales. These secondhand options are primarily, but not exclusively, offline.

Resale: A sector of the broader 'secondhand' market that includes more curated product assortments, often well merchandised and/or higher end. Examples include thredUP and TheRealReal as well as upscale physical players like Buffalo Exchange. These secondhand options are primarily, but not exclusively, online.

Secondhand Products: Consumption of all used apparel, footwear, accessories, books, furniture, entertainment, and beauty.

The Rise of Resale:
Size and Market Growth

"Compared to the overall apparel market, resale's growth has been phenomenal. As the market uniquely meets consumers' preference for variety, value, and sustainability, we expect the high growth to continue."

- Neil Saunders, GlobalData Managing Director & Lead Market Analyst for thredUP's Resale Report

02

Consumer Trends Drive Secondhand Growth

"Rental & pre-owned will increase as consumers regularly update looks for social media & as consumer attitudes toward ownership and sustainability change."

- Shoptalk x Robin Report on "75 Ways Retail Will Change in the Next Decade"

"Shopping ethically has often been perceived as a luxury, because of the price points...The good news is that we now live in the golden age of secondhand shopping."

- Elizabeth Segran, Fast Company

"There are numerous reasons for the recent rise of resale, including environmental benefits and the desire for frequent turnover of wardrobes especially among the Instagram generation."

- The Raymond James Financial Center, "Rise of the Fashion Resale Marketplaces" 2019

*Pounds of trash: calculated based on if 10% of Netflix subscribers (5.8M) threw away 5 trash bags worth of clothing each (30 items per bag).

03

The Closet of the Future

"In fashion, the shift to new ownership models is driven by growing customer desire for variety, sustainability, and affordability. In 2019, we predict more consumers will see growing proportion of their wardrobes made up of pre-owned or rented products."

- McKinsey x Business of Fashion, "The State of Fashion 2019"

GlobalData Market Sizing and Growth Estimates (2019) ¹

"Resale offers the wardrobe-rotating fun of fast fashion without the guilt or waste. By driving preferences away from disposable fashion towards higher-quality clothes, reuse is a boon for our personal style and the planet."

- Elizabeth L. Cline, Author of The Conscious Closet

*Secondhand customers spend an average of $32.53 per item ², bringing total displacement spend of 8 items to $260.

04

A New Resale x Retail Model is Emerging

"The retail sector needs to find ways to embrace, acquire, or partner with resale business models because customer adoption is likely to continue. Customers of the future will look for ways to recycle, resell or upcycle, and will be drawn to the incredible value of buying secondhand. We believe that brands will need to partner with resale sites and support the circular economy."

- Cowen and Company, "Thrift & Retail Resale Is Major: Understanding thredUP" November 2018

"While established brands have traditionally turned a blind or scorning eye towards secondhand retail, they are now wading into the pre-owned and rental markets. Turning to the year ahead, we expect the number of brands getting into the rental, resale, and refurbishment businesses will increase markedly."

- McKinsey x Business of Fashion, "The State of Fashion 2019"

05

thredUP's Most
Resellable Brands

"thredUP's Resale Value Rankings give consumers the confidence to invest in garments that are durable and resellable. By mining thredUP's unique trove of data, we can help guide purchasers toward clothes that can be resold rather than discarded-a mindset shift that is good for wallets and the planet."

- Tess Kornfield, thredUP's Lead Data Scientist

Paving the Way for a
Circular Fashion Future

"By helping to increase the use of clothing, resale can play a key role in making fashion circular. Raising the average number of times clothing is worn is the most direct way to design out waste and pollution and capture value."

- Francois Souchet, The Ellen MacArthur Foundation's Make Fashion Circular Lead
