When someone drinks dirty water, they get sick, they can't go to school or work, and usually someone else has to stay with them and miss school or work. When they don't go to school, they can't learn and get a job in the future. When they don't go to work, they can't make money and risk losing their job. Without money, they can't buy the things they need such as food. It goes on and on. With every action, theirs a reaction. In this case it's always going to be negative. That's why we need to help fix this problem and prevent these horrible chain reactions. ]]> 2017-01-25 16:10:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149365678 https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149374769 The most Important part about this article to me is the fact that it show how important water really is. People take water for granted and this article prove why its so crucial for your life. If you don't have clean water then your gonna have bad health. Simple as that. The effects of unclean water is unbearing to say the least. ]]> 2017-01-25 16:29:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149374769 https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149376850 I think the most important thing about this article is how the water affects everything and everyone. The water needs to be boiled but the fuel for fire is expensive, and they cannot cook or boil water. The water can get people sick, and they can miss out on educational opportunities. Not only that, someone has to care for them and skip work. If they miss out on these things, their future can be affected greatly.]]> 2017-01-25 16:34:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149376850 https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149645820 When asked what was important in my article I would respond by saying that the main focus was unclean water and the lack of resources in developing countries.  Many developing countries in Africa as well as around the world are faced with the growing issue of unclean water. Most of the cities and towns in these third world countries do not have the right resources. These resources have dangerous pathogens in them which elderly and children are most susceptible to. This can cause people to contract life threatening diseases which starts a chain reaction of the lack of education and income continuing the cycle of poverty. This issue needs to be addressed so that countries can evolve and flourish instead of stopping at a standstill. ]]> 2017-01-26 15:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149645820 mika_clod0902 https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149646782 I think the most important points are about how health from water can affect hunger, poverty , and education. Without clean water it can cause sickness which means you have to be out of school and that lowers your opportunity to learn. Also someone has to take care of them and that means they have to be out of work and use the money to buy medicine and not food. The poverty cycle continues. ]]> 2017-01-26 16:00:54 UTC https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149646782 https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149647148 I think the most important thing about this article is that every glass of dirty water is a potential killer.  In developing countries, most of the illnesses are linked to poor water and sanitation issues. These waterborne diseases can not only affect your health, they can affect many other aspects of life. Poor health can lead to poor productivity. Students who suffer from a waterborne illness can't stay in class, which means they miss the opportunity to learn. This contributes to the cycle of poverty.  When that person is sick, someone has to stay home and take care of them, which means that person can't work either. If the sick person needs medicine, that money can not be used for food or school supplies. Clean water helps kids stay healthy so they can stay in school. Thus, dirty water is serious issue that can lead to many problems such as health, poverty, and education. ]]> 2017-01-26 16:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ctollison/j1fzald7c3tw/wish/149647148
