The Origin and Significance of World Environment Day
World Environment Day is on June 5th every year. I believe everyone is familiar with this festival. It was established to appeal to people to maintain and improve the earth's environment. Do you know its origin and significance? Today, Bian Xiao and his classmates shared several articles about the origin and significance of World Environment Day. Welcome to reading.

The origin of World Environment Day:

1972 From June 5th to June 6th, 16, the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment was held in Stockholm, Sweden. This is the first conference on protecting human environment in the world in human history, which is a milestone and epoch-making event in the history of human environmental protection action. At the meeting, representatives of various countries suggested that the opening day of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment-"June 5th" be designated as "World Environment Day". In the same year, in June 5438+10, the 27th United Nations General Assembly accepted and adopted this proposal.

The significance of "World Environment Day" is to remind people all over the world of the changes in global environmental conditions and the harm caused by human activities to the environment. It requires the United Nations system and governments around the world to carry out various publicity and commemorative activities on this day every year to emphasize the importance and urgency of protecting and improving the human environment. The United Nations Environment Programme will also select a member country to hold the "World Environment Day" commemoration in World Environment Day every year, and issue an annual report on the state of the environment to determine the theme of World Environment Day that year. On the day of "World Environment Day", governments and people all over the world will hold various commemorative activities to publicize the importance of environmental protection. Call on all citizens of the earth to make unremitting efforts to maintain and improve the human environment.

World Environment Day means:

The earth is the common home of human beings and other species. However, due to unhealthy development modes such as deforestation and fishing, the rate of species extinction on the earth has greatly accelerated. The trend of biodiversity loss is making the ecosystem slide to the critical point of irrecoverable. If the earth's ecosystem eventually deteriorates irretrievably, the relatively stable environmental conditions on which human civilization depends will no longer exist.

The significance of World Environment Day is to remind the world of the state of the earth and the harm of human activities to the environment. The United Nations system and governments are required to carry out various activities on this day, emphasizing the importance of protecting and improving the human environment.
