Guess what day is today? Paris-Hilton-goes-to-jail Day? Yes and no. Today’s World Environment Day. If you think Paris Hilton goes to jail is good for the environment, then yes, it’s a World Environment Day a.k.a. Paris-Hilton-goes-to-jail Day too.
World Environment Day, commemorated each year on 5 June, is one of the principal vehicles through which the United Nations stimulates worldwide awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and action.
The World Environment Day slogan selected for 2007 is Melting Ice – a Hot Topic? In support of International Polar Year, the WED theme selected for 2007 focuses on the effects that climate change is having on polar ecosystems and communities, and the ensuing consequences around the world.
The main international celebrations of the World Environment Day 2007 will be held in Norway. UNEP is honoured that the City of Tromsø will be hosting this United Nations day. Please visit the Norwegian Polar Institute WED website for more information on the celebrations in Norway.
