More than 3000 children die each day due to contaminated water.

More than a quarter of children under 5 years of age die from unhealthy environments. Every year, environmental hazards - such as indoor and outdoor air pollution, secondhand smoke, unsafe water, lack of sanitation and inadequate sanitation - kill 1.7 million children under the age of 5. , according to two new WHO reports.

First report, Inheriting a Sustainable World: Atlas of Child Health and the Environment shows many of the most common causes of death among children 1 month to 5 years old - diarrhea, malaria and pneumonia – can be prevented with interventions that reduce environmental risks, such as access to clean drinking water and  cooking fuels.

“A polluted environment can be deadly, especially for young children,” said Dr. Margaret Chan, WHO Director-General. "Their developing organs and immune systems, along with their smaller bodies and respiratory tracts, make them particularly vulnerable to dirty air and water."
