This day was first formally proposed in Agenda 21 of the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Observance began in 1993 and has grown significantly ever since.Read More:<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/World_Water_Day\" target=\"_blank\"> <span style=\"color: #000000;\">&gt; <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">HERE &lt;<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">World Water Day is an international day of observance and action to draw attention to the plight of the more than 1 billion people world wide that lack access to clean, safe drinking water. Celebrated since 1993, World Water Day was designated in 1992 when the United Nations (UN) General Assembly passed a resolution. With each passing year, the observance has grown larger and stronger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">In many ways though, World Water Day is still a relatively unknown event. Even with the support of the UN and efforts by leading non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and committed individuals, World Water Day is today at a similar stage as Earth Day was in the early 1970\u2019s \u2013 important but relatively unknown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">Beginning in 2005 this began to change. Ethos Water and leading NGOs began an effort to bring even greater attention to the world water crisis on World Water Day. Then in 2006 with the strong backing of the Starbucks Coffee Company and other leading corporate and non-profit allies, we began a major effort to establish March 22 as a day where everyone, regardless of their involvement in water issues, pauses to reflect on the impact of the world water crisis and takes small but meaningful ACTION to make a difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\"><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"209\" height=\"173\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/niko_zDRnus\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"209\" height=\"173\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/niko_zDRnus\"><\/embed><\/object><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">In 2009, the theme for World Water Day is &#8222;Shared Water &#8211; Shared Opportunities&#8220;.

Nurturing the opportunities for cooperation in transboundary water management can help build mutual respect, understanding and trust among countries and promote peace, security and sustainable economic growth. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) leads the activities of the World Water Day 2009 with the support of United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">You can help.

During various parts of the history various types of  materials were used such as iron, copper and latest being the plastics.  The sources of these materials were not renewable and most of them are  not biodegradable. Thus they are not eco-friendly. With environmental  concern we are back to the basics. It is now envisaged that &#8222;Bamboo&#8220; is  our future material. It comes from renewable source and bamboo is  biodegradable. It gives us textiles as rayon, paper, food, shelter,  medicine and craft and ensures employment generation. It is often called  &#8222;Green steel&#8220;. With these backgrounds, government of India has now come  up with &#8222;Bamboo Mission&#8220;. An international organisation called INBAR is  planning bamboo development. In many UNDP and UNIDO programmes bamboo  figures. Though bamboo originated in India, we do not have sufficient  books and references on bamboo. We have to refer Japanese scriptures.  Out of 550 species of bamboo available in the world 178 species are  found in India out of which 75 species are found only in North Eastern  India. This book is an attempt to give backgrounds on bamboo in Indian  context with the hope that it will be a tool for success of &#8222;Bamboo  Mission&#8220;. It will certainly be of help to administrators, researchers,  planners and so on.&#8220; (jacket)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vedamsbooks.com\/no55025.htm\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">V<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ED<\/span>AMs   BOOKs- Bamboo &lt;<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s\/qid=1269257559\/ref=sr_pg_1?ie=UTF8&amp;rh=n%3A!1000%2Ci%3Astripbooks%2Cp_27%3AG.K.%20Ghosh&amp;page=1\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color:   #000000;\">Boo<\/span><span style=\"color:  #000000;\"><span style=\"color:  #000000;\">ks<\/span> by Amazon, Changes in Organic &lt;<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-11782  aligncenter\" title=\"2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.deinayurveda.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/2-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"2\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-11783  aligncenter\" title=\"3\" src=\"http:\/\/www.deinayurveda.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/3-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"3\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-11784\" title=\"4\" src=\"http:\/\/www.deinayurveda.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/4-114x150.jpg\" alt=\"4\" width=\"114\" height=\"150\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&gt; HOME a film by Yann Arthus-Bertrand &lt;<br \/>\nwww.savegangamovement.org<br \/>\n&gt; UMWELTBERATUNG Wien &#8211; Trinkwasser sparen &lt;<\/p>\n<p>www.worldwaterday2010.info<br \/>\nwww.worldwaterday.org<br \/>\nIn 1993 the United Nations General Assembly  declared March 22 as World Day for Water (also known as World Water Day).
