World Environment Day is June 5th every year, which reflects people's understanding and attitude towards environmental issues all over the world, expresses human's yearning and pursuit for a beautiful environment, and is also one of the main media for the United Nations to promote global environmental awareness, raise attention to environmental issues and take action. The following is an article about World Environment Day compiled by me for your reference only. Welcome to read it.

Flagship Festival in the field of global environment

World Environment Day on June 5th is the most important festival aimed at advocating environmental protection actions in the world. Led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), this festival has been held once a year since 1974, and now it has developed into the largest publicity platform for environmental protection in the world. Every year, millions of people around the world participate in the process of protecting the earth through this platform. This year, in 222, World Environment Day was hosted by Sweden. The theme is "Only One Earth", focusing on "practicing sustainable life and living in harmony with nature".

World Environment Day is committed to raising public awareness, encouraging everyone to celebrate this festival and inspiring environmental protection actions. Every year, governments, enterprises, civil society, schools, celebrities, cities and communities from more than 15 countries participate in and actively support World Environment Day.

222: a milestone year

222 is a milestone year for the global environmental community. The year 222 marks the 5th anniversary of the United Nations Conference on Human Environment in 1972, which is widely praised as "the first international conference on environmental protection in the world". The conference held in Stockholm, Sweden in 1972 promoted the establishment of environmental ministries and agencies around the world, and initiated a series of global agreements aimed at protecting the environment. It is also since this meeting that the world has established a link between poverty reduction and environmental protection goals, paving the way for the introduction of sustainable development goals. At the Stockholm Conference, World Environment Day's proposal was formally established, and the world celebrated the first World Environment Day in 1974.

the Stockholm+5 high-level international conference will be held in Sweden in early June 222, earlier than this year's World Environment Day. The publicity and communication around these two activities are interrelated and complementary. This year's World Environment Day is also endowed with the meaning of inheritance: 5 years ago, the theme of the Stockholm Conference was "There is only one earth". For today's us, the important warning significance carried by this message is as shocking as it was then.

222: The world enters an emergency mode

The world is facing three global environmental crises: climate change, biodiversity and natural degradation, and pollution and waste challenges. These crises are triggered or aggravated by human activities and unsustainable consumption and production patterns. The most vulnerable groups in the world often bear the most severe blow from the environmental crisis. Among the 7 million people who die every year from air pollution, the proportion of children and the elderly remains high, and most of them live in developing countries. In 22, climate shocks will force 3 million people to leave their homes-about three times the population displaced by wars and violent conflicts. By 25, the number of people displaced by environmental crisis may reach 2 million. Dealing with the environmental crisis is crucial to saving lives and improving the future of billions of people.

António Guterres, UN Secretary-General, pointed out in his speech at the UN General Assembly in January 222: "We must enter an emergency mode to deal with the climate crisis. The next decade will be a crucial decade for us to win the battle of "controlling global warming within 1.5 C", but now we are still deviating from the right track. " He added, "We urgently need to put in great efforts and take a lot of actions."

Inger Andersen, executive director of the United Nations Environment Programme, also said: "In 222, human beings and the earth must put on the' acceleration gear' and quickly turn into emergency mode." She stressed that we must realize that "human's influence and dependence on nature are our life-saving straws. We must not only survive on this fragile and beautiful earth, but also prosper." Let's work together for our homeland!

We only have one earth, and protecting it is a global challenge and the responsibility of all mankind. We have the solutions, knowledge and technology to curb climate change and avoid ecological collapse, but we need to take concerted collective action. We need to rethink our way of life and consumption.

Climate change knows no national boundaries, and the pollution problem is also global, which requires the joint efforts of all countries. Ecosystem restoration is a key component of climate solutions, and it is very important to eliminate poverty and enhance human resilience and ecological resilience. Each of our individual consumption choices will have an impact, and individual actions will accumulate, which will generate huge energy.

all of us should make rapid and transformative adjustments and changes, and actively promote the realization of a more sustainable and fairer planet, a planet that will help everyone to flourish.

"Only One Earth" Advocacy

"Only One Earth" was the slogan of the Stockholm Conference in 1972; Fifty years later, today, this slogan still shines with the light of truth-the earth is our only home. At the moment when nature is in a state of emergency, # There is only one earth advocacy activity as a part of World Environment Day in 222, calling on all people to join in the wave of action to protect the environment, and * * * celebrating and thanking the earth for its gift.

# There is only one earth advocacy activity that calls for transformative actions on the environment on a global scale. The event focuses on climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, and encourages everyone in the world to live in harmony with nature. This activity will provide case studies and promote best practices, help the government, enterprises, institutions and individuals to intensify their actions, and promote the major and urgent changes we need.

in addition to actions to change personal lifestyles, this activity will also focus on leveraging influence and financial leverage to promote the implementation of practical solutions beneficial to mankind and the planet. Human beings must unite and step up their actions, share the earth's resources fairly, and protect and restore the natural world on which society and economy depend.

Action to Protect the Earth-Digital Strategy

From April to June, we will encourage individuals, enterprises and community groups to use the topic # There is only one earth on social media and World Environment Day official website to share their practical actions to "protect the Earth". We encourage everyone to accurately quantify what they have done and set a real and concrete example for others.
