World Nature Conservation Day is observed on July 28 to create awareness about the importance of protecting the environment. It’s an important occasion to educate people about the challenges of climate change and the necessity of conservation of natural resources.

Climate change is a reality and to mitigate the impact of global warming conservation of nature is inevitable. Action should be initiated at all levels for protecting our environment and the day serves as the suitable occasion for this while reminding us of the perils of over exploitation of natural resources.

Conservation efforts have become crucial at all levels across the world as several countries are facing severe consequences of air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, drought, floods, extinction of wildlife and other disastrous impacts due to depleting natural resources.

On this day governments, social organisations, NGOs and educational institutions organise several events to raise awareness about the importance of the conversation of nature. From small efforts at individual levels to policy implementations at government levels, every little step could bring significant changes towards a sustainable living.

The observance of the World Nature Conservation Day is aimed at preservation of natural resources, biodiversity and ecology across all regions.
