The United Nations has designated March 22nd World Water Day to focus attention on the importance of fresh, clean water and to advocate for the sustainable management of fresh water resources. This year's theme is "Water and Food Security."
As the ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu put it: "In the world there is nothing more submissive and weak than water. Yet for attacking that which is hard and strong nothing can surpass it."
Not all the news is bad on World Water Day. A report released earlier this month noted that over two billion people gained access to improved drinking water sources between 1999 and 2010.
