Messages from United Nations officials for World Environment Day
Secretary General of the UN, Antonio Guterres
This year's theme World Environment Day is soil restoration, desertification and drought resistance.
Humanity depends on the earth. Yet around the world, a toxic cocktail of pollution, climate chaos and biodiversity destruction is turning healthy lands into deserts and thriving ecosystems into dead zones. They are destroying forests and grasslands, and undermining the land's power to support ecosystems, agriculture and communities.
UNEP Executive Director Inger Andersen
This World Environment Day we are asking everyone join the global movement to restore our lands, build resilience to drought and fight desertification.
Land degradation affects over three billion people.
Freshwater ecosystems are also degraded, making it more difficult to grow crops and raise livestock.
This disproportionately affects small farmers and the rural poor.
But nature is resilient.
By restoring ecosystems, we can slow down the triple planetary crisis: the climate change crisis, the nature and land loss crisis, and the pollution and waste crisis.
We can help to reverse biodiversity loss by 2030, in line with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
We can get closer to keeping global temperature rises in line with the Paris Agreement by increasing carbon storage, including peatlands.
And we can reduce poverty and food insecurity, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals.
The work has begun.
of UN Decade for Ecosystem Restoration is supporting commitments to restore one billion hectares of land, an area larger than China.
Last year, six countries pledged to restore 300,000 km of rivers and 350 million hectares of wetlands.
At the sixth UN Environment Assembly in February, countries agreed to strengthen sustainable land management.
Later this year, the three Rio Conventions on climate, biodiversity and land — are each holding a Conference of the Parties.
Land restoration can be a golden thread that ties together action and ambition at these three important gatherings.
We must make this work worthwhile.
I thank the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for hosting World Environment Day 2024.
On this momentous day, I ask everyone to join Generation Restoration.
Our land is our future.
We must protect it.
