到2025年，将有18亿人绝对缺水，世界三分之二的人口将处于用水紧张的状态。

到2045年，荒漠化将导致近1.35亿人无家可归。

通过恢复退化生态系统中的土壤，每年可储存近30亿吨碳。

土地资源的有效管理与人类的#可持续发展[超话]# 密切相关。今天是#世界防治荒漠化和干旱日# ，今年是《联合国防治荒漠化公约》25周年，倡导负责任地消费，减少人类活动引起的过度开发和利用土地，才能有效地将土地退化控制在合理的状态。
By 2025, 1.8 billion people will experience absolute water scarcity, and 2/3 of the world will be living under water-stressed conditions.

By 2045 some 135 million people may be displaced as a result of desertification.

Restoring the soils of degraded ecosystems has the potential to store up to 3 billion tons of carbon annually.

On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Convention and the World Day to Combat Desertification in 2019, we call for public attention and actions on responsible consumption to prevent overuse of land resources and maintain degradation neutrality.
