Let us tell you that World Environment Day is celebrated every year on June 5. Environment means the entire natural environment in which we live. It includes all the living and non-living elements around us, such as air, water, soil, plants, animals, and other organisms. The components of the environment interact with each other to form a holistic ecosystem.
Why is World Environment Day celebrated only on June 5?
The foundation of celebrating Environment Day was laid in 1972 when the United Nations celebrated the first Environment Day and announced to celebrate this day every year. The first environmental conference was celebrated on June 5, 1972, in which 119 countries participated. The conference was held in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. The United Nations General Assembly designated 5 June as Environment Day, marking the first day of the Stockholm Conference on Human Environment.
