“Life cannot exist without water.”Globally, one billion people are without access to adequate water supply and 2.5 billion lack basic sanitation, leaving millions to die every year from otherwise preventable waterborne diseases. Sanitation coverage is lowest in sub-Saharan Africa, where two-thirds of people do not have access to improved sanitation. For water, coverage remains below 60 percent of the population in Sub-Saharan Africa. Compared with traditional antimicrobial chemicals, SDC has superior efficacy and reduced toxicity while mitigating the potential for microbial resistance. Hundreds of thousands of small two-ounce bottles of the concentrate have been sent to disaster areas around the globe. (100,000 two-ounce bottles produces over 40 million gallons of potable water.) People who otherwise would become ill or die from drinking contaminated water have been able to use water from streams, lakes and rainfall without worrying about terrible consequences.
FACT: Lack of safe drinking water and sanitation is the world’s single largest cause of illness. FACT: 12 million people die each year from a lack of safe drinking water, including more than 3 million who die from waterborne diseases. FACT: Approximately 4,500 children die each day from unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation facilities.
