Related to land: Preserve Our Land, Sustain Our Future
Preserving our land is crucial for ensuring sustainability, promoting environmental health, and securing a brighter future for generations to come by maintaining ecosystems and protecting natural resources.
Causes
Human activities like deforestation, overgrazing, poor farming practices, industrial waste, and urban expansion cause land degradation, biodiversity loss, soil erosion, and land pollution.
Cutting down trees and overusing land for livestock destroy habitats and reduce plant and animal species. Poor farming methods and industrial waste reduce soil quality, while expanding cities pollute land and water, leading to widespread environmental damage.
Almost 30 percent of India’s geographical area is degraded, with this figure rising to more than 60 percent in states such as Rajasthan.
