World Environment Day 2020.

World Environment Day 2020.

World Environment Day (WED) is celebrated every year on June 5. 

 It is run by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The theme in 2020 is "Time for nature", in 2019 was “Beat Air pollution” and in 2018 was "Beat Plastic pollution".

The air we breathe, the water we drink, the sun rays that reach us, and the food that we consume every day, are all gifts from the environment, and as such, it becomes important that they are respected, their values understood. World Environment Day is celebrated every year on June 5, to remind people to not take nature for granted, and to read the signs, understand them, and act accordingly. It is one of the biggest annual events in the world run by the United Nations to raise awareness among people. It is believed that the day was designed by the UN General Assembly in the year 1972, on the first day of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment.
