Climate change, human-induced changes in nature, as well as actions that disturb biodiversity, such as deforestation, intensive agricultural and livestock production, or the increasing of illegal trade in wildlife, may accelerate the rate of destruction of the planet.

This Mother Earth Day is the first to be celebrated within the United Nations Decade for Ecosystem Restoration.

Ecosystems support all forms of life on Earth. The health of our planet and its habitants directly depends on the ecosystems health. Restoring those that are damaged will help to end poverty, combat climate change, and prevent mass extinction. But we will only succeed if every person or corporation does their part.

As we always mention, and more than ever on this World Mother Earth Day, from the pet food industry we remember that we need a change towards a more sustainable economy that works for people and the planet. That is why the companies in this industry, which does not stop growing, are committed to developing in harmony with nature, either by incorporating equipment that reuses non-renewable resources and minimizes environmental impact using sustainable packaging, certifying standards norms that guarantee their processes, etc.

 

United Nations International Days

The existence of international days predates the creation of the Organization; however, they have been adopted by the United Nations as a powerful instrument to promote these issues. Each international day offers many participants the opportunity to organize activities related to the goal of the day. The organizations and offices of the United Nations, governments, civil society, the public and private sector, schools, universities and, in general, citizens, turn an international day into an opportunity for awareness activities.

So as a media, we take the advantage of promoting these dates, highlight them and remind the pet food community that the growth of the industry must accompany these initiatives.

Each one of us is important to achieve change! What do you think?
