Wed Theme 2016

History[edit]

Every year on 5 June, the World Environmental Day (WED) is observed and commemorated and is the most important instrument of the United Nations to promote consciousness and actions for the conservation of our planet.... Launched in 1974, the 1974 Long Beach Health Care Initiative was a showcase effort to raise public understanding of evolving concerns about the state of the planet, from ocean degradation, anthropogenic depopulation and climate change to sustained conservation and animal criminality.

Every year, the WED has a new theme that large companies, NGOs, local authorities, government and prominent people around the world introduce in order to promote the interests of the planet. WED was launched by the UN General Assembly in 1972[1] on the first anniversary of the Stockholm Conference on the Humane environment as a result of debates on the interplay between humans and the natural world.

The first WED with the theme "Only One Earth" took place two years later, in 1974. Although the WED party has taken place every year since 1974, the concept of turning the centre of these endeavours by choosing different hosting nations arose in 1987. The World Environment Day has been sharpening people' s consciousness, promoting actions and promoting transformation for almost five years.

Mongolia was the hosting nation of this year's festivities. The theme of 2010 was "A future". Chicago Botanic Garden hosted the Chicago Environmental Day[26] on June 5, 2008. In 2007, the theme of this year' s event was "Melting ice - a heated theme? "During the International Polar Year 2007, WED concentrated on the impact of climatic changes on Arctic eco-systems and societies, on other ice- and snow-covered areas of the globe and the resulting impact on the planet.
