International Day for Water

World Day for Water – March 22
Our daily lives depend on and are shaped by water. Without the water that surrounds us – the humidity of the air, water from rushing rivers and the kitchen tap – our lives would be impossible. Eighty percent of our bodies are formed of water, and two thirds of the planet’s surface is covered by water. Water is our life.
Water is a basic nutrient that is also important for our age-esteem. It is basic to our level of energy. Healthy levels of hydration in our body influence how we feel about ourselves. It is recommended that we drink 1.6 liters or quarts of water per day to maintain healthy levels of hydration, something that is not easy in many parts of the world.
