World Environment Day is the United Nations’ flagship day for promoting environmental awareness and action, celebrated every year on June 5. First observed in 1973, it has become the largest global platform for environmental public outreach, with millions of people participating worldwide.
In 2025, the focus is on ending plastic pollution, a pressing environmental challenge that affects ecosystems, economies, and human health. The campaign encourages individuals, communities, and governments to adopt sustainable practices and reduce plastic consumption.
