World Water Day 22 March 2013

Taking Water for Granted
Are you used to having clean, safe, clear water coming out of a tap in your home? Yup, I thought so. Did you know that close to ONE BILLION PEOPLE in the world have no access to clean water?

Contaminated water is one of the leading causes of infant mortality in the third world, and getting access to clean water is a daily struggle for millions of people.

Go try it right now. I challenge you. Turn off all the taps in your home and carry water jugs on your back from the nearest river or lake.  Notsomuch, huh?

So what are you going to DO about it?
Start by supporting World Water Day on the 22nd of March
