World Plumbing Day
Every year on March 11th, World Plumbing Day highlights the critical role of plumbing in safeguarding public health..
What do you think about when you see the word plumbing? Chances are, you think about running water, the sewer system, and the numerous pipes that make it all work. Now imagine a world without these products. How inconvenient would your life be without immediate access to hot or cold water? What if you were forced to leave the warmth of your house to go to the bathroom in an outhouse? What if your neighborhood didn't have a system of pipes that made these things possible?
You may believe that every homeowner in developed countries has access to running water and a sewer system. However, a lack of plumbing is a reality that some people live with every day in developed countries, but a lack of plumbing is a reality that some people live with every day. In the United States, two million residents do not have access to basic indoor plumbing. It isn't just those people who are homeless who don't have indoor plumbing or running water that are in need of assistance. In some states, such as Alaska, the Dakotas, and Maine, there are whole communities that don't have complete plumbing systems.
Where there's a need
In undeveloped countries, it's much worse. 2.5 billion citizens around the world don't have access to any sanitation facility, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This includes 818 million people in India and 607 million in China. There are other nations that have large populations of sewage problems as well.

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