The International Day of Forests has been celebrated annually since March 21, 2012, established by the United Nations General Assembly. This day aims to raise awareness about the vital role of forests and promote an eco-friendly environment for future generations.
Under this year's theme, "Forests and Innovation: New Solutions for a Better World," people worldwide are encouraged to engage in activities that involve planting trees, protecting forests, and exploring innovative approaches to environmental conservation.
Countries are stepping up their efforts to tackle deforestation and preserve natural habitats. For instance, the Chinese mainland has been actively planting trees, launching forest protection projects, and implementing measures to address deforestation challenges, contributing significantly to global environmental sustainability.
