Water Purifying Drinking Straw

According to the article, the sources say that half of the world's poverties has suffered from waterborne disease and nearly 6000 people - especially children - has died from drinking unsafe and unclear water. How can we reduce these kind of incident?

LifeStraw has created a water purifying drinking straw which can help with the problems in preventing diseases and saving the children's lives. In this case, not only they can make a good profit on it, they also saves people's lives which can be related to the ideal of business ethics. In addition, comparing to some unethical but legal business, this water purifying straw would be having both benefits in ethical and legal.

The product is unique, it helps people obtain safe drinking environment, which I think it is worthable for thinking how people live within a quality life. Not only for this water purifier but also it considers about the way they sell this product, which it somehow affects the solution of a business.
