World Water Day

World Water Day is observed every year on 22nd March around the world. The day is observed to fetch attention to the need of conserving safe drinking water as well as looking for solutions to provide safe drinking water to people around the world. According to current estimates, there are still about 783 million people around the world who do not have access to safe drinking water.

This international day was proposed in the UN convention of Rio De Janeiro in 1992. The day began to be observed in 1993 across UN nations and has only grown from strength to strength since then. In 2003, the United Nations formed the UN-Water organization to look after water issues around the world. The body is responsible for coming up with themes and messages for the day.

Two Color Sea

Two oceans color meet but don't mix.FACT but phenomenon.Pic shows two different ocean water bodies meeting in middle of Alaskan Gulf, where a foam is formed at the merging junction.This happens when glaciers of fresh water start melting and flow to join the ocean water which is more salty.Due to the difference in the salinity and densities of these 2 meeting ocean water bodies, a surface tension is developed between them that acts like a thin wall and does not allow them to mix. Eventually they will mix.
