Details
It’s the United Nations Environmental Programme’s (UNEP) World Environment Day (WED) today, 5 June 2012. UNEP organises this day to draw attention to the environmental problems – and solutions – of Earth today.
The theme for WED and Rio+20 is “Green Economy: Does it include you?” According to UNEP’s website, “A green economy is described as one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities. In other words, we can think of a green economy as an economic environment that achieves low carbon emissions, resource efficiency and at the same time is socially inclusive.”
