World Environment Day

WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY

Since 1973, and each 5 of June, is celebrating the World Environment Day, an special date, when all the world remmember the importance of our landscapes and moder nature.

The World EnvironmentDay is an event established for the UN General Assembly, in its Resolution 2994 (XXVII) 15 of December of 1972 which began with the Conference of Stockholm (Sweden), whose central theme was the Environment.

The World Environment Day is one of the main vehicles used by the United Nations to promote global awareness of the environment and promote political attention and action on the matter.

The objectives are:

- Give a human face to environmental issues.

1.  Motivate people to become active the agents of   sustainable and equitable development.
2. Promote the role of communities in changing attitudes towards environmental issues.
3.  Promote cooperation, which will ensure all nations and peoples enjoy a safer and more prosperous future as (Sweden), whose central theme was the Human Environment.

To achieve this, we promote all activities and policies aimed at improving care and environment.

This year, the Republic of India, is going to be for the first time, the host of World Environment Day, whose theme is "Forests: Nature at your service." Each year the emphasis is on an important aspect of nature, and revolve around that theme all celebrations and events for that day. This time, losbosques, which are home to 80% of terrestrial biodiversity, as well as covering 31% of the planet, will be the stars.
