World Water Day


Today is World Water Day. In the United States, we take for granted the automatic presence of water in our kitchens and bathrooms, and we abuse our privilege by buying bottled water that contributes to environmental destruction. But in some countries, access to clean drinking water is a struggle. Some women walk hours a day to retrieve drinking water. Many die from using contaminated water.
