🌍 This #WorldEnvironmentDay, join #GenerationRestoration! 🌿 We cannot turn back time, but we can grow forests, revive water sources, and bring back soils. In 2024, the focus is on restoring land, halting desertification, and building drought resilience. Led by UNEP-WCMC, millions from all sectors are coming together to raise awareness and influence action. Up to 40% of the world’s land is degraded, affecting 3.2 billion people. We must restore ecosystems to tackle climate change, save species, and secure our future. Will you join us?

Happy World Environment Day! 🌍 This year’s theme focuses on land restoration—a practice that will be vital to helping many communities adapt to the impacts from climate change. Helping sustain existing natural resources is one of most efficient strategies but where lands are degraded, restoration holds great potential. Watch this one minute video to learn more and see how people around the globe are celebrating today and everyday.

40% of the world’s land is already degraded, 3.2 billion people are affected by desertification, and by 2050, droughts will impact more than 75% of the global population. 🌍🌱 Today, join us and millions of others around the globe for World Environment Day, led by UN Environment Programme, to raise awareness and drive action. In 2024, our focus is on restoring land, halting desertification, and building drought resilience. Trees and forests are crucial in this mission. They combat climate change, support biodiversity, and secure our future 🌳✨ #worldenvironmentday #generationrestoration https://lnkd.in/d9KJ4BE3

Today we are observing World Environment Day. According to the UN Convention to Combat Desertification, up to 40% of the planet’s land is degraded, directly affecting half of the world’s population. The number and duration of droughts have increased by 29% since 2000 – without urgent action, droughts may affect over three-quarters of the world's population by 2050. Ensuring the protection and revival of ecosystems all around the world is critical to achieving the United Nations #SustainableDevelopmentGoals This is why World Environment Day 2024 focuses on #LandRestoration, halting desertification and building drought resilience under the slogan “Our land. Our future”. We cannot turn back time, but we can grow forests, revive water sources, and bring back soils. We are the generation that can restore our planet for future generations. We are #GenerationRestoration. Click here to find out how FCE is fighting climate emergency: https://lnkd.in/eapizYyD https://lnkd.in/eziZmH62 #WorldEnvironmentDay

Happy World Environment Day! This is the biggest international day for the environment every year. #WorldEnvironmentDay focuses on restoring land, halting desertification and building drought resilience. Up to 40 per cent of the world’s land is already degraded, while an estimated 3.2 billion people worldwide are negatively impacted by desertification, and more than three-quarters of the world’s population is expected to be affected by droughts by 2050. The message is clear, we must restore ecosystems to tackle climate change, save species from extinction and secure our future. Will you join us? #GenerationRestoration Led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the day brings together millions of people in government, business, civil society, schools and celebrities engaging online and in-person to raise awareness and influence environmental action.

Let's commit to making a difference today and for generations to come. Together, we can restore the Earth and build a sustainable future. #GenerationRestoration #WorldEnvironmentDay #ClimateAction #SustainableFuture

It's surprising how often the most critical issues are right in front of us, unnoticed until we delve into the details. Forests, covering nearly 40% of Europe's land, play a vital role in carbon sequestration. Sustainable land management is essential for a greener future. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #UrbanPlanning #Biodiversity

#Didyouknow that about 80% of Europe’s #landsurface has been shaped by human activities: covered with buildings, roads, industrial infrastructure or used for agriculture. The way we use land constitutes one of the main drivers of environmental degradation and climate change. Our lands are a vital resource that need to be protected. On #WorldEnvironmentDay we have a chance to reflect on opportunities and actions we can take on #landrestoration, building #droughtresilience and combating #desertification.
