In preparation for World Water Day, observed annually on March 22, efforts are underway to clean up the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, Thailand. Garbage collection initiatives aim to tackle the persistent issue of waste accumulation, which obstructs drains and canals and contributes to river pollution.
World Water Day, recognized by the United Nations, underscores the critical significance of clean water resources worldwide. Each year, the event highlights themes pertinent to water sanitation, hygiene, and sustainable development goals.
This year’s focus aligns with the broader objective of promoting access to clean water and sanitation for all. As the world marks this occasion, the cleanup efforts serve as a reminder of the ongoing challenges and the collective responsibility to safeguard our waterways for future generations.
