The theme of this year’s UN-sponsored event, observed on March 22, is nature-based solutions for managing water resources. Organizers say that strategies like reconnecting rivers to flood plains and restoring wetlands have the potential to rebalance the water cycle and improve human health and livelihoods. Today we are proud to highlight the efforts of the Nature Conservancy, a global nonprofit working to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Your support of their work makes a difference for people and nature.
