Holi is just around the corner and will be celebrated on March 27th 2012. Youngsters are already arming themselves with water balloons and drenching unsuspecting passerby’s. Few of them pause to consider that this balloons hurt both people and the planet. While the pain where the balloon hit you may recede, the damage caused due to the environment may not be so easily remedied. These plastics are not recyclable and will most probably clog drains or be consumed by some poor animal. Secondly the water lost may not be so easily gained back. Holi is pre-dominantly a festival of colours which everyone seems to have forgotten. Another thing not many people might remember is that March 22nd is observed as World Water Day. The United Nations General Assembly designated 22 March 1993 as the first World Water Day and each year World Water Day highlights a specific aspect of freshwater. In 2013, in reflection of the International Year of Water Cooperation, World Water Day is also dedicated to the theme of cooperation around water and is coordinated by UNESCO in collaboration with UNECE and UNDESA on behalf of UN-Water.
