 Every year, on March 22nd, the United Nations observes World Water Day with the aim of highlighting the importance of freshwater resources. The Water Resources Management Agency is the entity responsible for water conservation and management in San Lucia. This year, groundwater is being highlighted through the theme, groundwater, making the invisible visible. Water is water which is found in underground cracks and species in our soil, sand and rocks. This water source is important because it feeds our natural springs and allows our rivers to flow throughout the year. It may not be very visible deep below the ground, but its impact is quite visible and important for maintaining healthy flowing river streams and springs. With lower rainfall patterns resulting from climate change, groundwater will become increasingly critical for providing alternative sources of water to relieve future water stresses. The International Day of Forests is observed on the 21st of March, just one day before World Water Day. This year, the Water Resources Management Agency has partnered with the Department of Forestry to observe these occasions because healthy forests ensure healthy rivers. There are several planned activities to mark this occasion, such as panel discussions and school-based presentations. Let us all work together to conserve our fresh water supply because water is life.
