“World Toilet Day is about the 2.4 billion people who lack access to improved sanitation. It is about the nearly 1 billion people who have to defecate in the open. It is about the millions of children whose futures are compromised by poor sanitation and related nutrition problems. And it is about you, who can’t wait to change this situation.” – WorldToiletDay.org
November 19th is World Toilet Day. Did you know that the rainwater collected from rain barrels can be used to flush your toilet! How cool is that?
The video below is a couple years old, but it is still one of our favourites. Matt Damon knows that the toilet is the greatest invention that has saved more lives than any other in the history of humankind. The use of rain barrels contributes to the goals of clean water in our world and better sanitation for all.
