World Water Week's theme is "Water for People and Progress." The progress: 2.2bn people still had no safely managed drinking water in 2024, and diarrhoeal disease is the 2nd biggest killer of under-5s in LMICs. #WorldWaterWeek 🔗 www.worldwaterweek.org 🔗 www.springsproject.eu

Unusually warm weather in #Europe, this early in the year. The 2023 IPCC Synthesis Report showed that every increment of warming brings escalating hazards, including risks to water safety and waterborne disease. At SPRINGS, that's what we study 🔗 springsproject.eu IPCC Report 2023: bit.ly/3PEsYIL

#Floods and #droughts don't just disrupt daily life; they mobilise contamination. Overwhelmed sanitation. Pathogens in shrinking water sources. Unsafe alternatives. Extreme weather is a delivery system for #WaterborneDisease. Another axis of the loop bit.ly/4tJGrOj #BreakTheLoop #ThePoopLoop

SPRINGS project @springsproject.bsky.social · 30/04/2026

The way we live pushes the planet past its limits and those limits exist for a reason. Crossing #PlanetaryBoundaries makes water, food, and climate less stable. That means more extreme weather, and more risk of #DiarrhoealDisease for the world's most vulnerable. ⤵️ bit.ly/4tJGrOj #BreakTheLoop

#DiarrhoealDisease is still one of the top killers of children under five and #ClimateChange is making it harder to stop. Unsafe water, sanitation failures, extreme weather feed each other. That's the loop. 👉 bit.ly/4tJGrOj #BreakTheLoop, because no child should die from unsafe water. #ThePoopLoop

Earth Day is about the state of our planet, its water systems, its ecosystems, its shifting climate. At SPRINGS, we study what those shifts mean further down the chain: for water quality, for pathogens, for disease. A changing Earth changes health outcomes. 🔗 springsproject.eu #EarthDay2026
