World Environment Day, 5 June 2025

"We will enjoy and celebrate Earth’s beauty and bounty and her many species. We will honour our duty to love and care for her and add to her well-being wherever possible."
(Chapter Statement)

This year's World Environment Dayobservance comes as countries make progress towards securing a global treaty to end plastic pollution, including in the marine environment.

Plastic pollution permeates every corner of the planet—even in our bodies in the form of microplastics.

All of us can take action to #BeatPlasticPollution and create a healthier future for ourselves, our planet and all life forms. We can start by reducing, reusing and recycling plastics.
