World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought

 June 17, is recognised as World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought. On this the UN  comes up with a different strategy each year to prevent desertification and drought. This year's idea "We build back better with healthy land" is to turn the degraded land into healthy land.

Land is the foundation for all life forms. Hence, it must be prevented from its degradation. Land can be protected by following the principles of sustainable development. UN specifies that in 2020, it observed that strong community support helped a lot in protecting the Land.

We must never forget that we don't inherit the resources from our forefathers, we borrow it from the future generation. Let's protect our own land and and in-turn save the planet.
