Key Points:
-Water filtration
-Available clean water in developing countries issues.
-Even though more and more developing countries are improving on their water filtration system and getting more available clean water, majority of it is happening in the major cities in these developing countries.
-Rural areas and far away cities are still facing problems with available clean water.
-The issue of self made clean water is brought back and further discussed.
-Water can be filtered out by just throwing a bag of water on top of the roof top and the sun will filter out all the bad particles.-
-However, there are also saying that bottle water should not be left out in the sun because the plastic will release poison particles into the water. -People at developing countries and especially rural cities without modern transportation carry most of their stuff on the back of their bicycles, and sometimes it is surprising to see how much these villagers can carry, (Kristen mentioned when she was in Asia, she saw a villager on bicycle carrying a basket of piglets on the back of his bike.)
-Pregnancy in developing countries.
-Developing countries tend to have the issue of high number of children per family, especially in rural cities and villages.
-Women are not as aware with contraceptive and sex education, so even though the government might have restriction and laws forced upon
-China’s one child per household rule, some families sill have very high number of children per household.
-This is not a problem that can be solved in a short period of time, it really takes time to put forth the law and educate the people in developing countries.
