Happy World Water Day!

March 22 is World Water Day, a United Nations initiative highlighting the importance of freshwater and its conservation. This day raises awareness about the global water crisis and promotes actions to ensure clean water for all. Freshwater is vital—not just for drinking, but for ecosystems, agriculture and cultural heritage.
