These are such staggaring statistics. I look forward to seeing more of these stats improve along with increased successes of the inroads that ONE and similar organizations are doing to make a difference. Thanks!

Having a bullet list for Americans with action points is the best way to get action back. I went to a talk on water in the 21st century last night and learned that so many issues in the world today around poverty (and lack of water) already have solutions, it just takes spreading the word and getting people involved to act on the solutions. One is doing this well.
