World Environment Day is celebrated every year on 5th June. On this day, people around the world raise awareness about the importance of protecting our environment. The purpose of this day is to educate people on how to protect and preserve nature. People participate in various activities such as cleaning their surroundings, planting trees, watering plants, avoiding the use of plastic, and discouraging littering in open areas.
The main objective of this day is to create awareness, especially among the younger generation, about the importance of keeping our environment clean so that we can breathe fresh air and reduce pollution. It also reminds people to use natural resources wisely and avoid overconsumption. For example, if you and your friend are traveling in the same direction, try to use a single vehicle instead of separate ones. This helps in saving fuel and reducing pollution.
Do not waste water or food. Try to use eco-friendly items that decompose naturally, such as paper bags. Using such alternatives can help reduce the excessive use of plastic. By taking small steps, we can make a big difference and contribute to a healthier and greener planet.
