World Environment Day-2022 is being observed on June 5 with the campaign #OnlyOneEarth for collective, transformative action on a global scale to celebrate, protect and restore our planet, informs the United Nations.
The UN message World Environment Day-2022 goes like this:
In the universe are billions of galaxies,
In our galaxy are billions of planets,
But there is #OnlyOneEarth.
Let’s take care of it.
According to the UN, the Earth faces a triple planetary emergency as follows.
The climate is heating up too quickly for people and nature to adapt
Habitat loss and other pressures have threatened with extinction an estimated 1 million species
Pollution continues to poison our air, land and water
The UN urged for a collective, transformative action by various governments, cities, businesses, organizations and individuals to protect and restore the planet. "The way out of this dilemma is to transform our economies and societies to make them inclusive, fair and more connected with nature. We must shift from harming the planet to healing it," stated the UN.
