So World Water Day has been happening on the 22nd of March every year since 1993, which is not far off when water was privatised in the UK.
And this year...
It's water and gender.
And it says on the website, which I will put on the show notes, the global water crisis affects everyone, but not equally.
Where people lack the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation, inequalities flourish with women and girls bearing the brunt.
This World Water Day, it's time to centre women and girls in water solutions, because where water flows, equality grows, which strikes me as a pretty good thing.
This is a UN, a United Nations...
promoted thing.
And we don't necessarily love huge global systems that are designed to maintain business as usual, but that strikes me as not a bad thing.
So in the UK, pressure your MP to not let this thing become a bill.
But given that we have a Labour government that has a fairly large majority, your MP is a Labour MP, they don't seem inclined to face up to what is an incredibly authoritarian small clique at the top.
What are the chances that it will become a bill?
Yes, that they finally released.
Okay, until we get a new government.
Alrighty, I want to wrap up shortly and I want to kind of widen this out because it seems to me water is crucial.
We need clean air, clean water, clean soil.
Those are the fundamentals of...
a flourishing future and a future that works.
I will put a link to the national security briefing that again was in the UK.
It was published in October, but the government sat on it until Freedom of Information Reports requests required that they publish it.
