‘Every Minute, an Equivalent of Four Football Fields of Healthy Land Becomes Degraded’
Up to 40% of all land area worldwide already considered degraded.
Desertification, land degradation, and drought are among the most pressing environmental challenges of our time, with up to 40% of all land area worldwide already considered degraded.
As the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration 2021-2030 marks its halfway point, we must accelerate efforts to turn the tide of land degradation into large-scale restoration.
If current trends continue, we will need to restore 1.5 billion hectares of land and jumpstart a trillion-dollar land restoration economy by 2030.
