For the second consecutive year and through the video contest 'I take care of the water', Aquona wants to sensitize schoolchildren in particular, and citizens in general, in the care and good use of water as a natural resource, scarce and precious, which we must preserve. Our future depends on your care. A sustainable use of water will guarantee its existence for future generations, minimizing the impact on the environment. In addition to sustainable development, another of Aquona's major objectives is social commitment. In this way we involve the educational community to be an active part of this action to raise awareness about water care, one more way to contribute to the dissemination of the water culture.
