World Water Day is March 22nd! This years theme is ground water. We often use it, but never see it.

Ground water is used for drinking water. 50% of the population depends on ground water for drinking water. The rest of the population drinks surface water or water from rivers and lakes. MPW takes our water from wells in the ground.
