World Wildlife Day: Medicinal and Aromatic Plants
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: Conserving Health, Heritage and Livelihoods Hello, my name is Sofonie Dala, and I am a sustainability impact volunteer. Today we celebrate World Wildlife Day , a special day to honor wild animals and plants. They are our friends, and they help keep our planet healthy and full of life. United Nations World Wildlife Day (WWD) is celebrated every year on 3 March to celebrate wild animals and plants and recognize the unique roles and contributions of wildlife to people and the planet. This year’s theme is about Medicinal and Aromatic Plants . These are plants that give us medicine when we are sick and wonderful smells that make us feel happy. They are part of our history, our health, and the way many families make a living. When we protect these plants, we protect ourselves, our culture, and our future. Together, we can care for nature so that children everywhere can grow up in a world full of healing plants, fresh air, and hope.
