Manage episode 209455928 series 1717442
After seeing his students take jobs supporting companies he didn't agree Dr. Omar Clay took the chance to pivot. Dr. Clay lives in Baja Mexico and is the founder of Science for the People. An organization that aims to help teach people without potable water sources how to set up, maintain and use simple water purification techniques. He was disturbed that 1 in 6 children were dying globally because of the lack of potable water. A problem that we have the resources and technology to fix, but most of the energy in this sector is invested in new technologies. For people with little or no access to education, the internet, and other resources the simple solutions developed centuries ago are not easily available.
