" International Mountain Day" - Dec 11th, 2012 - Celebrating mountain life

Mountains are crucial to life. 


Whether we live at sea level or the highest elevations, we are connected to mountains and affected by them in more ways than we can imagine. Mountains provide most of the world's freshwater, harbor a rich variety of plants and animals, and are home to one in ten people. 

Yet, each day, environmental degradation, the consequences of climate change, exploitative mining, armed conflict, poverty and hunger threaten the extraordinary web of life that the mountains support.(© FAO, 2012)
