June
Below we provide a list of environmental dates at-a-glance. While observation of an issue on a given date may not immediately address a problem, it can help raise the profile of environmental concerns and increase awareness. It is important to consider the environmental impact of social, political and economic issues every day - not just once a year - and take appropriate actions.
- World Environment Week: consider our local actions in the global context.
- World Environment Day: everyone's action counts.
- World Oceans Day: caring for our oceans and their diversity of life.
- Youth Day (SA): nurture decision-makers of the future.
- World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought: responsible farming methods support healthy ecosystems.
