World Plumbing Day -  Protecting public health...


Every year on march 11, we observe World Plumbing Day to recognize the vital role that plumbing plays in maintaining the health of society. Ultimately, the reason our towns and cities are so clean is plumbing. If the city didn't have adequate plumbing, human waste and excrement would still be present. Not only would the awful stench make a place uninhabitable, but it would also lead to the spread of deadly diseases that might destroy life as we know it. Because of this, events are held on this day all around the world to raise awareness of the value of proper plumbing and sanitation.


The World Plumbing Day History

Albert Einstein is said to have said that if he could do it all over again, he would become a plumber because plumbing is so essential to the world. Without a doubt, a crucial element of any modern, developed metropolis is its plumbing. It is important because, before any architectural plans are developed, the plumbing for a town or city must be selected.

Plans for a town's plumbing and sanitation must also be carefully studied, since the plumbing system plays a major role in a place's development. Since 2010, the importance of plumbing has been recognized globally with the observation of World Plumbing Day.

In order to promote the connection between superior plumbing, health, environmental sustainability, and, increasingly, economic prosperity, the World Plumbing Council is in charge of designating the day. Plumbing has been recognized as important by the World Bank. They consider it to be the most economical medical procedure available.

More people with the necessary training should enter the plumbing industry, according to the World Plumbing Council. The plumbers will be held responsible if they don't deliver high-quality work. 

Trained staff members can offer quick fixes and cutting-edge ideas that can enhance the sanitation system as a whole. This is crucial because each year, water-borne diarrheal illnesses brought on by open defecation near rivers claim the lives of roughly a thousand children under the age of five. Festivals, competitions, talks, and other events are therefore conducted on march 11 to increase awareness throughout the world.
