Visakhapatnam, India, 22 Mar 08

Primary school and middle school children will gather and take a pledge to conserve water and sustain good sanitation and hygiene practices

The pledge is as follows:

" I pledge to save water. I will never waste water. I will not contaminate drinking water. I will not pollute our precious water resources. I won't hesitate to tell my neighbors and others the sad state of our water in our holy rivers, lakes, tanks, wells, adn streams, and request them not to pollute them. I pledge to conserve every drop of water that I can every day of the week. I pledge to tell people not to clutter our drains with garbage and sweepings. I pledge that I am against open fouling of our environment, and I will practice good sanitation and hygiene. I pledge to celebrate World Water Day on March 22nd every year and let people know about the importance of conserving water and not polluting our precious water bodies.
