World Plumbing Day
Every year on March 11th, World Plumbing Day highlights the critical role of plumbing in safeguarding public health.
When you see the word plumbing, what do you think about? Chances are, you're considering running water, the sewer system, and the numerous pipes that make it all work. Now imagine a world without these products. How convenient would your life be without immediate access to hot or cold water? What if you had to leave the warmth of your house to go to the bathroom in an outhouse? What if your neighborhood did not have a system of pipes that made these things possible?
Every homeowner in developed countries should have running water and a sewer system, according to you. However, a lack of plumbing is a reality that some people live with every day even in developed countries, but a lack of plumbing is a reality that some people live with every day. Two million people in the United States do not have access to basic indoor plumbing. It's not just those people who are homeless who don't have indoor plumbing or running water that are in need of assistance. Whole communities exist in certain states, such as Alaska, the Dakotas, and Maine, that don't have complete plumbing systems.
Where there's a need

You may believe that a lack of plumbing is a point of frustration. However, it is much more than that. Not having access to plumbing is a significant health issue. You may have never thought that plumbing saves lives, but it does. Many people around the world are vulnerable to diseases because there are no such plumbing systems in place. Children are especially vulnerable. About 700,000 children die from diarrhea each year. This condition is usually caused by inadequate sanitation and contaminated drinking water.
