World Environment Day It is celebrated on June 5th and has been commemorated worldwide since 1973, by decision of the UN General Assembly. The date commemorates the opening day of the UN Conference on the Human Environment (Stockholm, 1972), at which it was decided to establish the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The international motto designated for this year is "World Under Water" and its goal is to bring attention to the issue of current climate change and rising sea levels.
