Desertification and Drought Day : Message of Ibarhim Thiaw, UNCCD Executive Secretary

Happy Desertification And Drought Day !
The security, prosperity, and health of billions depend on thriving lands. Yet, we vandalize the earth that sustains us. Every second, four football fields of healthy land are degraded. "#United4Land. Our Legacy. Our Future." is a call to action. Governments, businesses, communities, and individuals, we must unite to combat desertification. As we gather in #Bonn, Germany, for the global observance, we are inspired by the commitment of our partners, ambassadors. #LandHeroes and supporters around the world. “Together, let’s sow the seeds for a thriving future – for nature and humanity.” @ibrahimthiaw
