Water for Life
Tuesday, March 22nd, 2005 09:46 pmHappy World Water Day, everyone. (The second link seems to be overloaded.)
On a hunk of rock 67% covered by water, only about 1% is available for consumption. A billion around the world people lack daily clean water. In Europe, 1% of water treated to be drinkable is actually drunk.
Water is necessary for life. Water is everywhere. But water is becoming a scarce resource. Drink deeply. Experience the water in your body. And consider taking the pledge -- "I shall serve and protect water."
