June 5 is designated by the United Nations as World Environment Day (WED). It is a day to encourage people to take action to protect the environment. The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) leads the day, which has been celebrated since 1973. WED is supported by many non-governmental organizations, businesses, and government entities. Some ways to participate in the spirit of WED include restoring land to optimal use, using water wisely, and buying sustainable products.
