Every year on 5 June, the World Environment Day, an initiative led by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), brings global attention to urgent environmental challenges and the need for collective climate action.
This year’s campaign, “#NowForClimate,” highlights the critical signals of our changing planet, from rising temperatures and extreme weather to melting glaciers – and emphasizes the importance of collective action to address climate change. Governments, communities, and individuals all play a role in shaping a more sustainable future.
