World Forestry Day is celebrated annually on 21st March to raise awareness about the importance and conservation of Forests all over the world. The concept of having a World Forestry Day originated at the 23rd General Assembly of the European Confederation of Agriculture in 1971.



Forests provide many valuable things for the whole community. These include freshwater, a safe home for our flora and fauna, timber for our homes, furniture and paper, beautiful scenery and rugged environments for those who enjoy the outdoors, pollen and nectar for honey production, and archaeological and historical sites.



In addition, We depend on forests for our survival, from the air we breathe to the wood we use. Besides providing habitats for animals and livelihoods for humans, forests also offer watershed protection, prevent soil erosion and mitigate climate change.



Therefore, it all starts with individual actions from people like us. We alone are not responsible for the issue but we can sort it out.
