About World Environment Day -2022
World Environment Day 2022 is the biggest international day
for the environment. Led by the United Nations
Environment Programme (UNEP), and held annually since
1973, it has grown to be the largest global platform for
environmental outreach. It is celebrated by millions of people
across the world. World Environment Day 2022 is hosted by
Sweden. “Only One Earth" is the campaign slogan, with the
focus on “Living Sustainably in Harmony with Nature”.
Earth faces a triple planetary emergency
I. The climate is heating up too quickly for people and nature to
adapt;
II. Habitat loss and other pressures mean an estimated 1 million
species are threatened with extinction;
III. Pollution continues to poison our air, land and water.
