Land is life. It is the ground we stand on and the soil that feeds us. But our lands are degrading – driven by unsustainable consumption, agriculture and pollution. Land degradation negatively affects 3.2 billion people.
Still, land is forgiving. We can restore it by growing trees and more diverse crops. We can avoid pollutants and revive water sources.
