The World Environment Day (WED) is commemorated every year on 5th June and is the United Nation’s principal vehicle for encouraging worldwide awareness and action for the protection of the environment, global warming, sustainable consumption and wildlife crime.
Each year, WED celebrations highlight a specific aspect of the environment. This year, the global WED is being celebrated under the theme “BEAT AIR POLLUTION”. In Zambia, the national theme is ‘Combating Air Pollution for a Clean, Green and Healthy Zambia’.
