Some facts on #worldwaterday

●Women and girls in #Gaza spend an average of 6-8 hours a day on a gruelling and humiliating journey to fetch a few litres of water.

●land The average Gazan receives 3-15 liters of water per day (mostly brackish water), while the per capita share of potable water does not exceed 2 liters, which is less than 15% of the minimum standard according to World #Health Organization standards.

💧Water is a human right—yet millions still lack safe access.

Conflict continues to damage infrastructure, disrupt access and deepen WASH needs in places like Ukraine, Palestine, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.

International humanitarian law must be respected.

Nearly 33% of the EU’s public water supply is lost before it even reaches the consumer.

Our EU-wide target is to enhance water efficiency by least 10% by 2030!

#HuntsvilleAL #GreenTeam cleans water streams for ‘#WorldWaterDay’

Mar. 21, 2026

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WAFF) - "Dozens of people spent their Saturday cleaning up Huntsville’s waterways.

"Huntsville’s Green Team and local volunteers spent time picking up trash and other debris from local streams.

"Organizers say it’s essential to keep the city clean to protect North #Alabama’s environment.

" 'This is a good place because, first of all, this water it is coming through Spring Branch, it’s flowing down South Huntsville to the Tennessee River. And a lot of it catches up here, it accumulates here,' said Dan Waldrop."
