When is World Toilet Day?
Sunday November 19thEvery year on November 19th, the world commemorates World Toilet Day. It's not a day to use bathroom humor, and there is no laughing matter. This day is designed to tackle the global sanitation crisis and draw attention to those in need of sanitation.
Human waste products are responsible for deadly diseases. Toilets may seem to be a basic necessity, but they save lives. Toilets are provided by toilets, which is a human right. Without sanitation, it's almost impossible to get out of poverty.
By 2030, one of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals is to ensure water for all by 2030. 4.2 billion people around the world today don't have access to properly managed sanitation. This is more than half of the global population. At least 2 billion people drink drinking water that has been contaminated with human feces. Inadequate sanitation causes an estimated 432,000 diarrheal deaths each year. Around 670 million people around the world are being encouraged to practice open defiance. Toilets not only help people maintain their dignity, but they also help individuals maintain their dignity.
Some cities are unlivable due to a lack of toilets and a sanitation system. This includes Dhaka, Bangladesh's capital. There are very few public restrooms in the city. The majority of them don't work or are unusable. Many toilet-making businesses are trying to find solutions for cities like Dhaka to solve their sanitation problems on this awareness day. Separett, a Swedish company, is working on a waterless toilet system to benefit people from around the world. Villages in Nepal's Majhi no longer have to resort to open defecation in fields and ponds around their house, thanks to World Toilet Day's alert.
