Get your Run On for Water
What: The 6km Run for Water http://liveearth.org/en/run. 6 km is the average distance women and children walk to get water every day in many countries around the World. The event will have a run/walk as well as concerts and water education activities.
When: April 18th, 2010
Where: Worldwide, literally runs on every continent.
Who: You!
Find a run/walk in your local community and moving this weekend! After the winter months, its nice to get outside, and what better way than to participate in a global fundraiser for our most scarce resource, water?
The event is also hosting awareness activities, resources online, and the option to donate directly to various water fundraisers worldwide. There are also several celebrity athletes that have signed up and other contributing their time, talents, and resources.
So if you are looking for a way to participate in something meaningful around Earth Day, this may be something fun to join!

. I will check it out my nearest recycling group. Thanks.
Great! Have fun out there tomorrow
6km, man makes you think, I pop down to the supermarket every couple of days for six bottle of mineral water, the bottles alone must be so wasteful. This has made me feel better, the only attidude that ever yields consistent results is to be thankful for what you have, thanks for the reminder.
