It’s World Water Day! 🚰 Isn’t it wild how much we depend on water? #WildWednesdays #WorldWaterDay #skinteresting Water makes up about 60% of our bodies. The skin’s stratum corneum both protects us from external invaders as well as prevents the loss of water from the body (why it’s so important to use a moisturizer like Creammmy-Rich Intensive Moisture Milk or virgin oil daily!) Water is life — without it, plant, animal, and human life is simply not possible. Yet we are troublingly behind where we need to be in order to achieve the @unitednations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6: water and sanitation for all by 2030. World Water Day aims to raise awareness about the water crisis and encourage us to act on ways that can make a difference, such as (from worldwaterday.org): 🚿 SAVE WATER: Take shorter showers and don’t let the tap run when brushing my teeth, doing dishes and preparing food. 🗣️ BREAK TABOOS: Talk about the critical connection between toilets, water and menstruation. 🍽️ EAT LOCAL: Buy local, seasonal food and look for products made with less water. 🟰 MAKE IT EQUAL: Share water fetching between women and men, girls and boys. 🚽 FLUSH SAFE: Fix leaking water and waste pipes, empty full septic tanks and report dumping of sludge. 🗑️ STOP POLLUTING: Don’t put food waste, oils, medicines and chemicals down my toilet or drains. 🕵️♂️ BE CURIOUS: Find out where my water comes from and how it is shared, and visit a treatment plant to see how my waste is managed. 🌍 PROTECT NATURE: Plant a tree or create a raingarden - use natural solutions to reduce the risk of flooding and store water. 📢 BUILD PRESSURE: Write to my elected representatives about budgets for improving water at home and abroad. 🏞️ CLEAN UP: Take part in clean-ups of my local rivers, lakes, wetlands #SavingTheWorldsSkin
