Definition of clean water and sanitation

 -Definition of clean water- 

 

The meaning of our goal is the percentage of people using safely maintained drinking water services. A drinking water service that is safely managed must be on-site, accessible when needed, and free of pollution




-?Why is this goal important for the SDGs-


      The sixth goal of the 17 SDGs is the "Ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all". Given the significance of clean water for general socioeconomic development and quality of life, including health and environmental preservation, achieving this goal fully or even partially would be very useful for humankind

 A basic human need that should be met for everyone is clean water. On the earth, there is enough fresh water to accomplish this

This aim is very important because the Sustainable Development Goals can only be achieved with clean water and sanitation. We can also better our food and energy production, contribute to decent work, and help the environment grow by managing our water sustainability


-Facts-


Every year, millions of people - mostly children - die from diseases linked to insufficient water supply, sanitation, and hygiene due to poor infrastructure, investment, and planning 

As a result of unsafe water sources, an estimated 1.2 million people died in 2017. This was 2.2% of global deaths

More than 80% of wastewater resulting from human activities is discharged into rivers or seas without any treatment or sanitation which leads to pollution
