  1. World Water Day – 22 March

    Observed on 22 March to highlight freshwater conservation. Established at the 1992 Rio Summit and first observed in 1993.

    Water is a basic right, yet billions face scarcity and poor access. Focus areas include pollution, groundwater depletion, climate impact, and SDG 6 (clean water and sanitation).

    2026 Theme: Water and Gender

    UPSC quick fact:
    22 March + Rio 1992 + SDG 6 + WASH

  2. 22. März ist #Weltwassertag. Das Motto dieses Jahr ist "Wasser und Geschlecht".

    Übrigens ist dieser Tag seit 1993 jedes Jahr am 22. März und seit 2003 von der #UN organisiert. #Wasser und das #Geschlecht sind stark miteinander verknüpft und daher dieses Jahr am Weltwassertag im Fokus. Am Dienstag mehr dazu! Wir sind übrigens UN-#SDG, vor allem #SDG6 Partner.

  4. In Finnland wurde eine Torfgrube sehr erfolgreich renaturiert. In kurzer Zeit ist ein Natur- und Vogelparadies entstanden, das große Mengen an Kohlenstoff speichert:

  5. Thomas Mocket, Puritan minister, lists good reasons for generosity to the needy. This list ended up in the Westminster C.F. Among benefits of giving are that it opens hearts of those refreshed, and stops the mouths of religion’s critics.

    In contrast, I hear Puritan scholars endorse contemporary books on Christian advice to the young which don’t mention liberality, but the need to resist the trans movement.

    How can you give glory to God?

  6. Thomas Parker, English Congregationalist, on the church in the city. Reflecting on Job’s example (29:16), he asks if we are feet to the lame. If we were to disappear, would the neighborhood, family, or workplace feel as if there were an eclipse of a great light?

    I’ve heard that some wait staff at restaurants dread the news that the convention coming to town is a Christian one, because it will mean less tips.

    How can you be eyes to the blind?

    Is it transported through sewers to a treatment plant, or treated on-site?

  12. Sanitation is one of the most off-track #SDG 🚨 So how can we realise the potential of 'brown gold' to help get it back on track?

    Join Brown Gold and WaterAid for an exciting event to discuss how we can achieve this.

  13. 25% of the world’s population lack a basic handwashing facility with soap & water at home. And 646 million children lack a basic hygiene service at their school.

  14. Right now, humanity faces multiple challenges that share a common connection. The cycle of poverty, inequality, and vulnerability to the effects of climate change; these issues, and more, stem from the lack of a resource needed by all, and that resource is safe water. Here’s why water is connected to every global goal. #SDGs #SDG6 water.org/about-us/news-press/

  15. Lack of safe drinking water isn't a recent development but the consequence of decades of historical disadvantage and a lack of investment in critical infrastructure, and one that isn’t unique to Australia.

  16. New #SDG6 indicator progress reports from UN-Water show we are falling short of achieving all eight targets towards safely managed water and sanitation for all by 2030.
    In some regions, progress is not only lacking but going backwards

  17. Aid for water and sanitation is shrinking, cooperation on transboundary waters is lacking, populations are rapidly growing, and climate change is making water unpredictable.

  18. In #Czechia, municipalities rank SDG 6 as the most important SDG. Targets on drinking water and transboundary cooperation can be considered achieved, with excellent progress across the board.

  19. Water is vital to human & planetary health, yet #SDG6 is off-track. Without action, 4.8 billion people could face water risks by 2030.

  25. Today I taught water chemistry to the UNSW "Earth's Systems and Sustainability" class. We cover Earth Science and it's role in sustainable development.

    It is the one day in the year where I buy a bottle of water, and ask the class to do the same (not susat in nable, I know). We use the water chemistry on the labels to understand the relationship between chemistry and the water source.

    And we cover the unsustainability of the bottled water industry, and its impacts on meeting the Sustainable Development Goal 6 (clean water and sanitation).

    This year that was made easier by a UN report released two weeks ago, and summarized here:

    theconversation.com/how-the-bo

    This is a global league table you do not want to be top of, and Australia is second worst globally, and the Asia-Pacific the largest users of bottled water. Time to do better....
