June 5, United Nations World Environment Day





Small Changes Make a Big Difference

World Environment Day (WED) stimulates awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and public action. It was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972. Every year, a different city hosts World Environment Day with a different theme.

WED Mission: To provide leadership and encourage partnership in caring for the environment by inspiring, informing, and enabling nations and peoples to improve their quality of life without compromising that of future generations.

"Remember that it is people who propel social progress, develop science and technology, and, through their hard work, continuously transform the human environment. We are both creatures and molders of our environment."

These words are spoken directly from the 1972 Declaration on the Human Environment, adopted by the #UnitedNations Conference on the Human Environment, Stockholm, 16 June 1972.
