Hosted on June 5th every year since 1974, World Environment Day is the most renowned day of the year for environmental action. A day that offers a global platform for inspiring positive change. A day when celebrities and regular citizens focus efforts and time into pressing environmental issues. A day when governments are engaged!

Did you know that our food, our air, our water & our climate all come from nature?

Marine plants produce more than a half of our atmosphere’s oxygen each year and One mature tree can absorb 22 kilos of carbon dioxide, releasing clean air/oxygen in exchange.

World Environment Day 2020 is hosted by Colombia and the theme is biodiversity.

Never in our lifetimes has the interdependence of human life and the world, in which we exist been so obviously demonstrated. From the bushfires in the USA, Australia & Brazil to the locust infestations across East Africa and now, a global disease pandemic, the biodiversity concern is both urgent and existential.
