A favourable environment (with the right policies) that promotes a healthy lifestyle (clean air & water, nutritious diet, physical activity, no alcohol or tobacco) is the best way to achieve a longer, healthier lifespan

Forested watersheds and wetlands provide 75% of the world's accessible freshwater.
