I am Water

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Home to some of the world's largest icecaps and glaciers, and graced with massive waterfalls, Iceland reminds the world of fresh water's importance to life on Planet Earth. That's the message that top contributor Paul Vlad wants to bring through in this excellent drone video from the North Atlantic island nation. You'll be taken over scenes of massive water movement in the form of falls, streams, and rivers, all parts of a giant system which is in danger of being thrown out of balance by human activity.

Much of today's water degradation is fundamentally tied to human disconnection. Many feel very little or no connection to the environment, behaving in ways that negatively impact the wellbeing of this precious resource. 844 million people lack basic drinking water access, more than 1 of every 10 people on the planet. Women and girls spend an estimated 200 million hours hauling water every day. Every day, more than 800 children under the age of 5, die from diarrhea attributed to poor water and sanitation. Our vision for a greater connection between people and nature is even more crucial today! Humanity is standing at a great crossroads, it is crunch time for our planet and all of us who call this beautiful blue and green dot HOME.
