AnswerClick to flip back
A
We celebrate water day every year to attract the attention of everybody towards the importance of conserving water.
💡 Explanation:
World water day is celebrated every year on 22nd March. Water is essential for life on earth. The water available for consumption on earth is limited. Only 3% of the water on earth is freshwater. All lakes, rivers and swamps combined include a very small part that is 0.3% of the earth's total freshwater reserves. Hence water should be used judiciously. So water day is celebrated every year to attract the attention of everybody towards the importance of conserving water.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
