WORLDENVIRONMENT DAY
World Environment Day is
the biggest annual event in the world run by the United Nations to mark the
environmental awareness among the people.
World Environment on 5th June every year. People from more than 100 countries
celebrate this day. Furthermore, the world environment day is run by the United
Nations Environment Programme(UNEP). Since the year 1973. Its main objective is
to raise awareness among people to protect the environment by looking at
various problems regarding scorching issues of environment pollution, drastic
climatic changes, greenhouse effect, global warming, black whole effect etc,
among human beings on the planet Earth.
What do we
do on World Environment Day?
On the world environment
day, we all take a day off from our work. And join various campaigns to spread
awareness about environment protection. Moreover, we all plant small saplings
in a barren land so that it may grow and flourish in the land area after some
years. Also, we take part in various processions to make people aware of this
day. So that they may also take part in protecting our environment.
Significance
The day is celebrated to
raise global awareness about the significance of a healthy environment issues
by implementing some actions to protect nature and earth, leading to a positive
and healthy environment for all.
The emergence of
COVID-19 has also shown just how disastrous the consequences of ecosystem loss
can be. By shrinking the area of natural habitat for animals, we have created
ideal conditions for pathogens – including corona viruses – to spread.
With this big and
challenging picture, the World Environment Day is focus in the ecosystem
restoration and its theme is “Reimagine, Recreate and Restore.”
Only with healthy
ecosystems can we enhance people’s livelihoods, counteract climate change and
stop the collapse of biodiversity. World environment day Essay – Our environment is one of the most
important aspects to survive on this planet. Moreover, it is the only thing
that can make life sustainable. Without it, we cannot survive even a single
day. For instance, our skin will burn, the lungs will get ruptured, our blood
pressure would rise. World environment day Essay – Our environment is one of

Effects
Every three
seconds, the world loses enough forest to cover a football
pitch and over the last century we have& destroyed half of
our& wetlands. As much as 50 per cent of our coral reefs have already been
lost and up to 90 per cent of coral reefs could be lost by
2050, even if global warming is limited to an increase of 1.5°C.
Ecosystem loss is
depriving the world of carbon sinks, like forests and peatlands, at a time
humanity can least afford it.
Global greenhouse
gas emissions have grown for three consecutive years and the
planet is one pace for potentially catastrophic climate change

Did you know?
- Nearly 80 per
cent of the world’s wastewater is discharged to our oceans and rivers
without treatment
- Over 4.7
million hectares of forests – an area larger than Denmark – are lost every
year.
- Present in more
than 180 countries, peatlands are vital, super-powered ecosystems. Though
they cover only 3 per cent of the world’s land, they store nearly 30 per
cent of its soil carbon
