Water covers three quarters of the Earth planet and is around 75% of the human body. Formed by the chemical composition H2O, is an essential element, a mainstay in the health of people, a renewable energy source and an important economic resource in industries such as agriculture. Many societies were born around rivers and other water sources and are still variously related to water resources. For a company like Canaletas exporting water coolers and drinking water fountains to more than 50 countries on five continents, to know the cultural diversity that surrounds water is a major issue.
The study 'Water, Cultural Diversity and Global Environmental Change' promoted by UNESCO focuses on the reality of water in different geographical areas of the planet. In Brazil, for example, the river Doce determine the cultural, economic, social and health in southeast of the country. Industrial and municipal waste have contaminated the river, so the National Water Agency a decade ago prompted social mobilization campaign to promote local water management and sustainable development.
The importance of water resources is also reflected strongly in the river Parapetí of Bolivia. The river is life in the Andean region. As explained by the UNESCO report, in the rainy season the river irrigates the fields, filled with fishes the area and invites people to large events, while in the other half of the year comes the famine and the river forces peoples to adapt their way of life.
A very different case is that of modern cities, where the water, always linked to the health and quality of life, occupies an important part of public space, either through water coolers, leisure facilities such as swimming and decorative elements such as lakes or water fountains. According to the UNESCO study, the ubiquity of water elements enhances the identification of a community and the vitality of the city.
Canaletas has an experience of more than 45 years in the manufacturing and distributing of water coolers to different companies, organizations or public spaces.
