The war in Gaza has caused severe destruction. Homes, agricultural land, and water sources have been damaged, leading to a humanitarian crisis. Millions are at risk of starvation, and the environment is suffering from contamination.
To rebuild Gaza, we need to focus not only on structures but also on ecological restoration. This includes cleaning the water, restoring the soil, and managing waste. The health of the environment is vital for the future of the people living there.
A global effort is critical to make Gaza livable again. The actions taken now will determine the future of this region and demonstrate the world’s commitment to healing the environment and helping its people.
