2009 could be a watershed year for World Water Day

The UN’s official site for the event was literally swamped by the response to the Events Calendar. Activities range from marches to galas, concerts, seminars, conferences, walks, art events, essays – even a “Save Water, Drink Beer” fundraiser and public awareness campaign held in Calgary, Canada, on March 20th.
More and more people seem to understand how important it is to protect this unique resource! As the old saying goes – “You never miss the water till the well runs dry”.
