The manifestation of this intimate connection can be seen in the health impacts of polluted water. 2.2 million infants and children die each year from diarrhea, which is caused largely by contaminated water and food (Pimentel et al, 2007). It is a matter of social justice. However, tor those who are indifferent to such plights, we are reminded that our food chain starts in countries with the least infrastructure to treat waste water. Food irrigated with contaminated water is grown and exported to rich countries. It is no longer useful to dismiss other countries: their problems are our problems, thanks to the current economic system.
