International Day of Forests is celebrated annually on March 21 to raise awareness of the significance of preserving forests. It has been declared to be the International Day of Forests by the United Nations General Assembly
Conserving and sustainably using forests is one of the best ways of protecting our planet and ourselves. Healthy forests are vital for all aspects of a healthy planet, from livelihoods and nutrition to biodiversity and the environment, but they are under threat. Ten million hectares of forest were lost every year to deforestation between 2015 and 2020. Insects damage around 35 million hectares of forest annually, and fire affected approximately 98 million hectares of forest globally in 2015. Itโs up to us to safeguard these precious natural resources.
