On this day every year, countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something everyone must have around the world. The human body is 60% of water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. We also need water for cooking. We have toilets in our houses and when we brush our teeth or have a shower, we use the bathroom. Farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. We are lucky enough to have clean water whenever (无论何时) we want, but this is not the case for many people around the world. Do you know the fact that around 750 million people do not have clean water to drink And do you know that 2.5 billion people do not have clean toilets That’s about 1 in 3 people in the world. If we drink dirty water or we can’t wash our hands when we go to the toilet, it is easy to catch diseases from the bacteria (细菌) and become ill. Every year over 500,000 children die from diarrhea (腹泻) from dirty water. In some countries children walk many kilometers every day to get water and sometimes the water isn’t even clean! If children walk many hours a day to get water, they can’t go to school. For World Water Day, some people in the UK walk, run or cycle 10 km, others climb mountains or even jump from a plane to the ground. At one school children walk 6 km with 6 liters of water so they can see how it feels to walk a long distance (距离) carrying heavy bottles of water.
