2 September
World Coconut Day
Coconuts are incredibly versatile, used in food, cosmetics, and even construction materials. By providing a stable source of income, coconut farming supports the livelihoods of millions of people in tropical regions, helping communities become more resilient to the economic impacts of climate change. Coconut-based ecosystems can help mitigate climate change by sequestering carbon. Intercropping coconuts with other plants can enhance carbon storage and improve the overall resilience of the ecosystem.
