Environment Day


                 Environment Day


Every year on June 5, people all throughout the country celebrate World Environment Day. People participate in public festivities to mark this memorable day. This day is recognised in order to raise environmental awareness among the populace. However, the indiscriminate cutting of trees has come under scrutiny in today's industrialised world. This has caused the global ecosystem to undergo tremendous change. Every year, people around the world observe World Environment Day to make a commitment to protecting the environment.

A United Nations research estimates that 400 million tonnes of plastic are generated worldwide each year, of which only 50% are reused and 10% are recycled. With 19 to 23 million tonnes of plastic garbage reaching our ponds, rivers, and oceans, a significant amount of plastic debris is negatively impacting our environment in one way or another. 

 

Goals of honouring Earth Day include:

The planet is experiencing an ongoing rise in pollution. The threat to the environment is growing as a result of this rising pollution. The celebration of Environment Day was instituted with the intention of stopping this, in order to raise people's awareness of the environment and inspire them to stop polluting the environment.

 

Theme for Environment Day:

 Every year, World Environment Day has a unique topic. World Environment Day 2023 will have the theme "Solutions to Plastic Pollution" as its focus. This theme is centred on finding a way to reduce plastic pollution.

 

When is the World Environment Day?
