World Environment Day 2024: Earth is our only home, nurturing us from birth to death. Nature provides all we need for our physical and mental well-being. Unfortunately, humans have exploited nature, leading to pollution and global warming. World Environment Day, celebrated every June 5th since 1973, raises awareness about these issues.
This year’s theme focuses on land restoration, desertification, and drought resilience. The UN highlights that 40% of the planet’s land is degraded, affecting half the world’s population and warning of increased droughts by 2050.
