World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought is a day when people all over the world join together and try to stop deserts from growing and to stop drought (when there is not enough water). The day reminds us how important it is to look after our planet and all the nature that helps us survive. We can help by planting trees, using water wisely, and taking care of the soil. That way, we can make sure there is enough water for everyone and stop the deserts from growing.
