Today is World Water Day as sponsored by the United Nations. UN World Water Day
And, the UN has declared that 2013 to be International Year of Water Cooperation.
Given that 1% of the water on this planet is fit for human consumption, let's consider how we'll take care of the precious resource we have and share it with our fellow man. Without potable water, we're all in deep doo-doo. We can live for several days, or a week, without food. But, we can't live for very long without water. Nor can the animals and plants that we rely upon survive either.
As you turn on your tap today, drink your next drink and have your next meal, consider how you are helping to use only the water you need and protecting our water resources for future generations.

I definitely agree with what you said, Steve. You can just imagine how hard it is to have limited water access. What more if we don’t have water supply at all, right? With that, people should learn how to appreciate our water resources and learn to conserve water even in the simplest ways. It's time for us to get involved with various advocacies geared towards conserving our water resources.
