WORLD TOILET DAY

No, no, this is not a joke!!! World toilet day is observed annually on 19 November, that is, tomorrow.
The main objective of this action day is breaking the taboo around toilets, but there is also a more serious aim: drawing attention to the global sanitation challenge.
2.5 billion people do not have access to clean and safe toilets. This is big problem beacuse many illnesses are the result of a bad sanitation.
You can learn more about this actio day on the official site: http://worldtoiletday.org/
There are also some videos to make people aware of the importance of toilets because where toilets don't exit, thousands die.
Let's sing along together with the World Toilet Organisation, flushing away stigmas and let real issues come afloat: 2.5 billion people lacking a basic human right: a toilet to be loved
.
  If you could set up an international action day, what kind of day would it be? World chocolate milkshake day? No-teachers day? Tell me your ideas and your reasons.

Hi teacher!!
Why don't we do the world clocks day?

Clocks every day help us. For example, when we have a date or a meeting.

Since the Egyptians, who used the air and the sun, we knew the clock.

Surely in all houses have a clock; wall clocks or wristwatches or pocket watch or cuckoo clock or table clock

In the world clocks day we could leave our clocks at home. Do you think that we could live without clocks?

Hi Julia!!! Good idea!!!
Clocks are essential in our daily life. I agree with you. However, I sometimes hate them. Mainly, when I am having a good time ;-)
Thanks for your comment

Hi teacher!! In my opinion a good object that it help us to have a nice rest is the bed. Everybody loves his bed, and It´s an evidence, as when you travel to another place and you have to sleep in another bed you really miss your bed. Because of this, the beds deserve a day to them. I am sure that you love your bed too. Bye!! ;)
Postscript: I am Andrea.
