PVK Digs Water Sustainability

Posted by:trinachi on June 10, 2009 at 01:52 PM

Olympic Gold Medalist swimmer Peter Vanderkaay (a.k.a. PVK) thinks water is cool. Very cool. So cool, in fact, that he teamed up with Blue Planet Run to raise awareness about our global water crisis.

Now Peter is swimming several days per week, and he estimates that he will swim 560 miles in training over the next couple of months! But in the midst of his very busy training schedule, Peter found the time to make a video about water sustainability with a few tips on how to ensure safe water access.

So how much do you think you know about clean water? Take the quiz.

And remember to support Peter in his efforts to promote safe water for drinking and sanitation around the world!

Glad to know that others are spreading awareness too. Along with some youth volunteers, I've spent the last 8 months planning the 1st ever Tucson World Water Walk -- a unique walk-a-thon we've developed to spread awareness about global water issues while raising money to fund the construction of a well and a sanitary latrine in a Ugandan High School.
