World Sparrow Day

March 20, Thursday

World Sparrow Day is celebrated every year on March 20th with the goal of raising awareness about the decline in sparrow populations and other environmental issues. Sparrows, which were once common everywhere, are now threatened with extinction due to the loss of their natural habitat, pollution, and other factors. This day was established by the *Nature Forever* Foundation in India and is supported by environmental organizations worldwide.
