Today, Nov. 19, is World Toilet Day apparently and it’s no joke.

It is, in fact, an official United Nations international observance day to inspire action to tackle the global sanitation crisis.

According to the U.N., worldwide, 4.2 billion people live without "safely managed sanitation" and around 673 million people practice open defecation.

The movement aims to "ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.”
