Last week, I asked you how you felt about boxed water, the latest fad to hit the beverage market. Although many of you were in support of the company's sustainable business model, just as many said you'd rather turn on the tap. It turns out you're not alone: recent studies indicate that consumers are actually turning their backs on bottled water.

Water. Considering we're constantly drinking it, mostly made of it, and wouldn't be alive without it, we don't give the liquid a lot of thought. That's why, in 1992, the United Nations conceived of World Water Day, which falls on Sunday, March 22.

As consumers have been inundated with such novelty items as blessed water and bottled tap water, it's hardly surprising to hear that the latest fad to catch on — perhaps in light of upcoming World Water Day — is boxed water. Boxed Water Is Better, the brainchild company behind the idea, bills itself as "part sustainable water company, part art project, part philanthropic project, and completely curious."
Because it's made from sustainably harvested trees and ships flat, the water has a lower carbon footprint than bottled water.

In order to provide safe drinking water to underprivileged societies, the Tap Project is asking diners to pay for tap water that would normally be offered for free. Many restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area are taking part in the project, which asks diners to donate a minimum of $1 for the tap water. The fundraiser started on March 16th and lasts through World Water Day, March 22.

Today is World Water Day (in fact, it's the 15th World Water Day to be observed). And unlike other random days, I can actually tell you a little bit about this one. World Water Day was started by the UN (they adopted the resolution in 1992 and it's been observed since 1993) in order to promote the public awareness about the issue that not everyone has clean, safe drinking water available to them.

SJP shimmered in blue last night to kick off World Water Day in NY. She teamed up with Esquire to launch UNICEF’s Tap Project, an initiative that offers NYC diners the option of donating $1 for their usually free tap water. The money will go towards a program that helps bring clean water to children in the developing world.

Holly Willoughby's had her fair share of comments about her cleveage in recent weeks, so I don't blame her for keeping her chest covered up in the shower whilst promoting the Ariel three minute shower challenge in London's Trafalgar Square, as part of today's World Water Day. Although there didn't appear to be any water flowing from the shower head, there seemed to be a little bit dripping out of poor Holly's eye. As she didn't have a trails of mascara running down her cheeks, I assume the makeup artist had planned ahead and applied waterproof makeup.
