Worldwide hunger problems are really water problems. Without water, crops and other plants die and people go hungry and become weak. Weakness makes it easier for people to be the victims of the “quiet killer”, hunger. Every day, almost 40,000 people die from diseases directly linked to drinking polluted water. Even if there is enough food to eat, family may still be slowly dying from another form of hunger called “invisible hunger”. It comes from drinking unsafe water. 80% of serious childhood diseases that kill children and destroy families worldwide are caused not by a shortage of food and medicine, but by drinking polluted water. Water is the lifeblood of a community(社会). When water is unsafe to drink, the entire community suffers. Sick children lack (缺少) the energy to learn and weak young men lack the strength to work hard, so poverty continues. In many places, it is the women and children who are responsible for finding and carrying water. This work often leaves little or no time for women to do other things and for children to get education, so poverty continues. Nothing can change a community like providing a source of clean water.
