More than half of humanity rely on mountain freshwater for everyday life, but mountain glaciers are melting at unprecedented rates with the world’s global warming, affecting freshwater supplies downstream.

 

 

Covering more than 27 percent of Earth’s land surface, mountains are home to 1.1 billion people and 25 percent of the world’s land animals and plants. Mountains are the source of six of the world’s twenty most important food crops – potatoes, tomatoes, corn, barley, sorghum, and apples. Their declination contributed to food insecurity in one for every two, or 53 percent, of rural people in developing countries between 2012 and 2017.

Mountain conservation is part of the Life on Land goal of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG). With its 2019 theme of #MountainsMatter for Youth, the International Mountain Day celebrated on Wednesday the 11th of December this year will highlight how hard living on the mountains can be for rural youths.

 

This year, youths will take the lead in ensuring that mountains and mountain people receive more attention, investments, and research, and become central to the world’s sustainable development. Calls for action include targeted investments, sustainable production and diversification of food systems, a strengthening of skills and value chains, and a drawing up of mountain-related policies.
