The World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought is to be held every year on June 17. This day raises awareness about desertification and drought problems. It also motivates people to work towards protecting the land.
Understanding Desertification and Drought
Desertification means the land is becoming dry and losing its ability to support life. It happens due to cutting trees, wasting water, and using poor farming methods. Drought happens when there is very little or no rain for a long time. Both issues are very harmful to nature, animals, and people.
When the land becomes dry, farmers cannot grow crops properly. This leads to hunger, poverty, and even migration to other places. Many people lose their homes because their land can no longer support them. It is important to save water and use smart farming to stop land from becoming useless.
Smart farming helps to protect the soil and use water carefully. Growing more trees and stopping land misuse can also prevent desertification. Governments, farmers, and all people should work together to protect the land.
We should not cut trees unnecessarily. Growing trees helps to make the soil healthy and store ater in the ground. Farmers can use drip irrigation and other smart ways to save water. People must also avoid wasting water in daily life.
The United Nations (UN) started this special day to remind the world that healthy land is important for our future. Many countries now join hands to fight desertification and drought together.
Conclusion
The World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought reminds us to look after our land and water and use carefully. If we protect the soil and use water wisely, we can prevent hunger and migration. Each person has a duty to help protect the planet. Together, we can stop desertification and drought and build a better future for all.
