June
5 is World Environment Day [02
June 2001]
“Connect
with the World Wide Web of Life” is the global theme of this year’s
World Environment Day. June
5 was declared as World Environment Day by the United Nations General
Assembly in 1972. It reflects the
need to make harmonious connection between us and all life on Earth. That
connection can be through modern technology, traditional means or by
joining hands with other individuals and organizations.
The UNEP
OzonAction programme has organised a video competition in the run up to
the thirteenth meeting of Parties of the Montreal Protocol in October this
year in Colombo.
“Protect
the Ozone layer” is the topic of this competition. Anyone from around
the world can submit entries on Ozone themes. The deadline is August 15,
2001.
Additional
information can be found from the respective National Ozone Units or on
the Internet.
