World Toilet Day

World Toilet Day Can you imagine not having a toilet Or privacy when you need to pee Unthinkable in wealthy countries But world-wide - - REALITY In fact one in three people Living in this world don’t know Access to a working toilet Or privacy when they must go In order to raise our awareness World Toilet Day has been proclaimed And November 19th was established As the day when our thoughts should be aimed At changing this sad situation And this world-wide problem we beat On this we must all stand united Until everyone can take a seat

Nope - another true story. I believe the first World Toilet Day was established in 2009 or 10. I just found out about it this year. (I was going to say I had to take a stand but I'll sit on that comment in support of the day). Mike
