For weeks, we've been hearing about the damage that flooding has done to Pakistan.

And truthfully, it's easy to get lost in the accounting.

1500 plus people dead, 30 million plus displaced, 70% of crop staples destroyed.

It's less easy to shake an image that the United Nations Agency for Children UNICEF offers.

The water isn't receding, and it might not for months in some areas.

So kids and their families are sleeping next to pools of stagnant water that is full of

feces, fertilizer, and disease.

They're drinking that water to survive.

Coming up on today explained how an added twist to this year's rainy season caused this

cataclysm, and the case that Pakistan is making to rich countries that they are old help.
