Introduction
Every year on June 5th, the world unites to celebrate World Environment Day, a global platform to raise awareness and take action for the protection of our environment. Coordinated by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) since 1973, this day has grown into the largest global environmental outreach event, celebrated by millions across more than 150 countries.
π± Why World Environment Day Matters
Our planet is facing unprecedented environmental challenges:
- Rising global temperatures
- Deforestation and habitat destruction
- Loss of biodiversity
- Plastic pollution and toxic waste
- Water scarcity and air pollution
World Environment Day reminds us that each action we take β big or small β contributes to the health of our planet.
2025 Theme: “Nature Knows Best: Restore Ecosystems, Restore Life”
This yearβs theme highlights the urgent need to restore damaged ecosystems β from forests and wetlands to oceans and urban green spaces. Healthy ecosystems are the foundation of all life on Earth. By protecting and restoring them, we can combat climate change, enhance food and water security, and support biodiversity.
π Environment in Education
Educating the next generation is key to creating lasting change. On this Environment Day, let us integrate sustainability into our classrooms and encourage students to become eco-conscious citizens.
