🚽 We’ll always need the toilet Whatever the future holds, we’ll always rely on sanitation to protect us from diseases. But today, 3.4 billion people still don’t have a safe toilet. 👉 See how we can change that: worldtoiletday.org #WorldToiletDay

When food is lost or wasted, land, labour, water, energy and all resources used to produce it are lost too. This #FLWDay, Food and Agriculture Organization and UN Environment Programme call for change in policies, investments, technology and consumer choices. We must act to cut #FoodLoss and #FoodWaste.

🚽 Toilets are under pressure. Rising demand, climate change, old systems and low investment all threaten our human right to sanitation. 👉 Let’s talk about it. Start a conversation today. #WorldToiletDay buff.ly/IoyQMNY

Wetlands provide an array of valuable services for society and the environment. Besides sustaining a huge number of plant and animal species, they improve water quality; reduce erosion and flooding and even moderate the effects of climate change. #ValueWetlands #WetlandsMatter

Healthy wetlands are essential to life on Earth, providing a wide range of ecosystem services. Safeguarding and restoring of wetlands is essential for the wellbeing for both people and nature. Let us take collective action to protect and restore these critical ecosystems.
