Every day, women and girls spend 200 million hours walking to collect water. That’s 8.3 million days. More than 22,800 years. It’s hard to get your head around numbers that large, so start instead with 6 km, the average distance travelled (World Vision) #water2me #wwdAB #ABwater

I've been thinking about the importance of water for life. It's been front & centre with all the attention on coal devt. in the Eastern Slopes (thanks to the UCP). It's important we protect the Rockies and the watershed they are connected to on World Water Day AB & all days.#wwdab #abwater

We asked some of our networks what water meant to them. Tracy says: "Water is calming. I have been lucky enough to scuba dive in the ocean a few times. Every time I go I am reminded how peaceful it is and how important it is to protect these ecosystems" #water2me #wwdAB #ABwater

Janine: Water has always brought the important people in my life together. Whether that means camping on the lake to take a break, or traveling around the world - I always see water as an integral gathering place where I can find happiness and peace. #water2me #wwdAB #ABwater

Jordan: "The opportunity to have helped with conservation research and protection of the leatherback turtles egg laying season was an experience that made me love our ocean waters even more. The turtle relies on clean ocean water and protected beaches"

Our volunteer Billie says: To say, “Water is life” may sound corny, but I know of no other way to express the significance of water to me. Aside from the obvious physical need for water, just being near a lake, river or stream is always rejuvenating. #water2me #wwdAB #ABwater

Tracy: Growing up in a small town in BC allowed me to drink clean water off the mountain. Now as an environmental scientist I’m working to help more Canadians have access to clean drinking water. #water2me #wwdAB #ABwater

Heather: I love standing in front of the ocean. Like the mountains, it reminds me how small I am, and makes so many of my worries wash away. #water2me #wwdAB #ABwater

Jordan says: "Knowing the work I put towards research and protection of coral reefs is working towards the preservation of healthy ocean waters is important to me. Local communities within the Carribean rely on protected healthy aquatic environments to provide habitat for fish"
