World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought is a special day on June 17th when people around the world learn about and try to stop desertification and drought. Desertification happens when land turns into desert because of things like cutting down too many trees or not enough rain. Drought is when there is no rain for a long time, and plants and animals don't have enough water to live. On this day, people talk about ways to protect the Earth, save water, and take care of plants and animals, so our planet stays healthy and green for everyone.

How to celebrate World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought?

You can celebrate by planting a tree or small plant in your garden or a pot. Help water it regularly, so it grows healthy and strong. You can also make a poster showing how to save water because every drop counts. Share your poster with family and friends to spread the message. Join a local event or clean-up activity to help the environment. Spend some time learning about plants and animals that live in deserts and share this with your friends.
