On the occasion of International Water Day, the Salesianos Copiapó Industrial School in Chile held a preventive fair on the care of water resources, celebrating the importance of caring for this vital element for the preservation of life on our planet. Caring for water is crucial for our survival, the health of the planet and sustainable development.
It is important to highlight the Salesian community's commitment to the environment, instilling in students a daily commitment to caring for the environment, carrying out concrete actions related to the proper use of natural resources and promoting good practices that aim to decontaminate for the benefit of humanity.
World Water Day is celebrated annually on 22 March, raising awareness of the importance of freshwater and the need for sustainable management of water resources. The date was established by the UN in 1992, following the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro.
