World Environment Day is celebrated on June 5 every year. Outside of our homes is the true home we all live in, and preserving it for future generations is more important than ever.

World Environment Day is one of the most exclusive and special holidays due to its many historical and early days. It was announced on the first day of the first UN conference that focused on humans and how they interact with the environment.

Sustainability and environmental protection are undoubtedly among the most pressing problems we face in the world today. All of the necessities of life come from Mother Nature, and unfortunately, we take that for granted. World Environment Day encourages everyone, from individuals to large companies, to be more aware of their impact on the environment.

Importance of World Environment Day

It’s an environment day and it connects us to nature. Sometimes we forget to what extent natural systems support our well-being. But we are part of nature and depend on it. So today is the perfect occasion to go out and enjoy the national parks of your country and celebrate the vital relationship.

It raises awareness as a result it’s a universal belief now that we need to sustainably manage our planet's resources and ecosystems. This is why World Environment Day is so important. It provides an opportunity to raise awareness about the physical environment among friends and family that how it is fragile and indispensable.

It encourages us to take action for the environment against the increasing pollutants and toxins which harm our health. They can cause respiratory disease and cancer. By raising awareness of the air issues that keep us going, World Environment Day inspires us to do something about it and fix the environment we cannot live without.

Ways to Celebrate World Environment Day

We must commit to recycling. There can be many ways to do this:

We should take every possible opportunity to recycle.
Think twice before throwing away any paper when there is no accessible recycling bin.
When using a plastic container, always check if it's one of the biodegradable kinds or not.

If we are not following these ways then we are all responsible for reducing our greenhouse gas emissions.

We must plant a tree as trees absorb odours and polluting gases such as nitrogen oxides, ammonia, sulfur dioxide, and ozone that filter the air molecules by trapping them in their leaves and bark.

If strategically placed around a single-family home, it can reduce summer air conditioning needs by up to 50 per cent. By reducing the energy demand to cool our homes, we are reducing carbon dioxide and other polluting emissions from power plants.

We must always volunteer for our environment. Anyone can volunteer and volunteering can make a difference in the entire community. We must get out of our comfort zone by volunteering at the National Park Service or stay local by volunteering at a farmers' market.

Whatever we choose to participate in, we will feel the positive impact of leaving the house and taking care of the planet.
