Toui: Sabaidee Caty!
Caty: Sabaidee Toui!
Toui: Have you ever experienced a water shortage?
Caty: No, we have clean water running every day. How about you?
Toui: Yes, I used to stay in a remote area where there’s no tap water, so we had to go get well water in a neighboring village.
Caty: Was it clean? Do they use a water purifier?
Toui: Not so clean, they have to boil it before drinking.
Caty: Right. Well, there are definitely people in the US who need improved access to clean water. And here is a video that tells about an effort to help some of them.

Safe drinking water is a vital resource that is out of reach for one of three people worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.
That includes more than two million Americans living without running water.
((Julie Waechter, DigDeep Interim Co-CEO)) ((SKYPE))
“Native American families are 19 times more likely than white families to not have running water, and Black and Latino households are twice as likely.”
To help address this water shortfall, the company SOURCE Global has installed hydro panels to collect vapor from the air and create clean drinking water for 500 homes.
Toui: I can’t imagine life without water. What does resource mean, Caty?
Caty: A resource is a source of supply or support. When we talk about natural resources we mean things like water, fertile land
and other things valuable in supporting life.
Toui: What about shortfall?
Caty: That is a noun meaning an amount of something that is less than expected or needed.
Toui: and Vapor?
Caty: Vapor is visible particles of moisture floating in the air, such mist, steam or fog.
Toui: Got it! Now, let’s move on to pronunciation.
Toui: That’s it Caty! Thank you very much.
Caty: You’re welcome!
