Living with Water Week
Water is all around us. But clean, safe, and enough water cannot be taken for granted. Especially now the climate is changing and extreme weather events are becoming more frequent. That is why it is time to change the way we use water. During Living with Water Week, there will be fun and educational activities throughout the country that revolve around... you guessed it: water!
This will help you discover how special and important living with water really is.
On the Living with Water website: Living with Water Week | Living with Water, you can see when the week will be held and where activities will be take place!
