M6Unit4 task

to fetch wood
As you can see, the families here are in very poor conditions. There is no running water and no electricity in this village. Water has to be collected from the river ten minutes’ walk away. This may seem near, but, when you need water for many things, walking ten minutes is a long time. The water then needs to be boiled before it can be used. The result of not boiling the water is illness. As you can see, the villagers’ houses are built of wood and are not very strong. This is because they have no money and cannot get any other materials. The people have very few things like clothes or furniture, because they have no money and there are a long way from the nearest town. There is a bus, but you have to walk six kilometers to get to the nearest road. As I said earlier, there is no electricity in this village, so when it is dark, the only light comes from the small fires that the family cooks over. Unfortunately , much of the forest around the village has been cut down, so the villagers have to walk further and further away from the village to get wood. This also means that drinking water may not be boiled for long enough as there is very little wood. This is going to be a big problem in the future.
