At Loudoun Water it is our mission is to provide high-quality water services to protect public health and the environment. Throughout the year our staff visits many elementary, middle and high schools to talk about the importance of infrastructure, protecting our watersheds, and how we treat our water and wastewater. Often these students admit that they take water and wastewater treatment for granted. We live in an area where we can turn on the faucet, flush our toilets and fill bathtubs without a second thought.
Could you imagine a day without water? Without safe, reliable water and wastewater service?
A day without water is a day without:
-
A morning shower to start the day
-
Fresh produce that fuels us
-
Parks and green spaces that restore us
This October 16, we’re proud to observe Imagine A Day Without Water — a day that reminds us that everything we depend on flows from clean water, and access to it is a fundamental human need.
Water is the foundation of public health, economic development, and community well-being. Clean, accessible water supports everything from our workforce to our infrastructure. Each year, Imagine a Day Without Water invites us to see how crucial our need for water really is by visualizing life without it, just for one day. Very quickly, we learn how indispensable water is in our everyday lives, and how our health, environment, and economy depend on reliable access to clean water.
Investing in our drinking water and wastewater systems, secures a bright and prosperous future for generations to come. We need to invest in our local water systems. Public officials at the local, state, and national level must prioritize investment in water, because no American should ever have to live a day without water.
