Ya, you are definitely right, I agree with you that half of the world's poor suffer from waterborne disease and 6,000 children die by consuming unsafe drinking water. So there is a need of installing ro water purifiers so that we can control uncertain disease and death. Safe water is the blood of any one's life.
Looks simple but the benefits for those who lack clean water is enormous. With LifeStraw dirty water can be drunk straight, but does not cause people who drink it become sick.
