The World On arirang

Planting Seeds in the Land of Death

In relation to the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), one of the three major conventions on the environment, we examine the serious problems of desertification occurring in many different countries all around the world like damage to the forests and the ecosystem being threatened due to desertification caused by climate change. In particular, through the Korea Forest Service's many efforts made to prevent desertification in Mongolia, China, Myanmar, Morocco, etc., we review the gravity of desertification and emphasize the justifiability of preventing desertification.
