Take Action on World Water Day
March 22, 2007

There are few things more important than clean, safe water. But corporate control of drinking water, the growth of the bottled water industry, pollution, and water shortages are all part of a growing water crisis.

March 22 was designated World Water Day in 1992 at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro, to raise awareness about the importance of preserving global water resources. Since then, communities, organizations and activists around the world have come together every year on March 22 to highlight water struggles and the need for clean , accessible, public water for everyone.

Join us in the celebration of World Water Day by organizing or participating in events to highlight water concerns in your community and mark this very important day. Click here for Canadian events.
