world environment day 5 june

World Environment Day (WED) is an annual event that aims to be the biggest and most widely celebrated global day for positive environmental action. WED activities take place all year round but climax on 5 June every year

What is World Environment Day?

The very first World Environment Day took place in 1973, inspired by the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment that took place the year before starting on June 5th. Each year the United Nations pick a theme and a host city where environmental topics can be discussed , followed by different kinds of exhibits and displays to promote environmental awareness, in many ways very similar to Earth Day

Through WED, the UN Environment Programme is able to personalize environmental issues and enable everyone to realise not only their responsibility, but also their power to become agents for change in support of sustainable and equitable development.

 

PM Narendra Modi's Message on World Environment Day

Planting the Kadamb sapling, the Prime Minister recalled the poem of Subhadra Kumari Chauhan, on the subject:

ये कदम्ब का पेड़ अगर माँ होता यमुना तीरे
मैं भी उस पर बैठ कन्हैया बनता धीरे-धीरेले देती यदि मुझे बांसुरी तुम दो पैसे वाली
किसी तरह नीची हो जाती ये कदम्ब की डाली

तुम्हें नहीं कुछ कहता पर मैं चुपके-चुपके आता
उस नीची डाली से अम्मा ऊँचे पर चढ़ जाता

वहीं बैठ फिर बड़े मजे से मैं बांसुरी बजाता
अम्मा-अम्मा कह बंसी के स्वर में तुम्हें बुलाता

सुन मेरी बंसी को माँ तुम इतनी खुश हो जाती
मुझे देखने काम छोड़ तुम बाहर तक आती

तुमको आता देख बांसुरी रख मैं चुप हो जाता
पत्तो में छिपकर धीरे से फिर बांसुरी बाजाता

घुस्से होकर मुझे डाटती कहती नीचे आजा
पर जब मैं न उतरता हंसकर कहती मुन्ना राजा

नीचे उतरो मेरे भईया तुम्हे मिठाई दूँगी
नए खिलोने माखन मिसरी दूध मलाई दूँगी

मैं हंस कर सबसे ऊपर टहनी पर चढ़ जाता
एक बार ‘माँ’ कह पत्तों मैं वहीँ कहीं छिप जाता

बहुत बुलाने पर भी माँ जब नहीं उतर कर आता
माँ, तब माँ का हृदय तुम्हारा बहुत विकल हो जाता

तुम आँचल फैला कर अम्मा वहीं पेड़ के नीचे
ईश्वर से कुछ विनती करती बैठी आँखें मीचे

तुम्हें ध्यान में लगी देख मैं धीरे-धीरे आता
और तुम्हारे फैले आँचल के नीचे छिप जाता

तुम घबरा कर आँख खोलतीं, पर माँ खुश हो जाती
जब अपने मुन्ना राजा को गोदी में ही पातीं

इसी तरह कुछ खेला करते हम-तुम धीरे-धीरे
यह कदम्ब का पेड़ अगर माँ होता यमुना तीरे

The Union Minister for Environment and Forests, Shri Prakash Javadekar, was present on the occasion

Best World Environment Day Speech 2016 for Student

speech on world environment day 2016

First of all, I wish a pretty warm great day to each of you located in this conference. I appreciated everyone with a lot of pleasure to take part here. At present we have been getting together here to enjoy the World environment day. At the start, let me tell something regarding the World environment day.

World environment day is recognized on 5th June each year. The need is to improve global awareness about our environment. Did you know when the World environment day has got started? During the year 1972, the United Nations Meeting on the Human beings environment was used from 5th June to 16th June. Thereafter, year after year on 5th June, it is often created and hosted by several nations worldwide with various themes.

This year’s theme of World environment day is "fight against the illegal trade in wildlife” Likewise, in 2011, the theme was “Forest- nature at your service”; in 2010, it was “Many species, one planet-one future”. In 2009, the theme was “your planet needs you-unite to combat climate change.”

We all know the value of our environment. It has all the living beings in world, that are simultaneously depends on one another. However because of the pollution due to humans, a lot of species have become extinct and the global environment is also modifying at an extremely quick rate. It’s affecting human health as well as likely to provide a long run impact on our coming future. We know that huge numbers of people in the world rely upon jungle for their livelihood. Each and every life staying is based on plants. One the plant creates their meals themselves. Yet, we folks are degrading the jungle a lot.

In in the year 2011, our nation (India) is the global host of world environment day. Since I have said that this year’s theme is "fight against the illegal trade in wildlife” should anybody determine what is the "fight against the illegal trade in wildlife?” the well-being of mankind, the environment, along with the performing of the financial position, eventually rely on the important power over the planet’s sources. But yet, research is constructing that we are taking much more natural resources as compared to what the earth can sustainably give.

I will not make it a long speech. I wish to tell just one thing about this big event that make sure to place trees as many as you could , just because we rely on tree completely .Make sure to grow a minimum of one tree in the special day such as on the birthday , anniversary and etc. .

Finally, I must say thanks to each of you again to recognition me for a guest on this great conference.
Thank you all.

Environment day Speech 2

Firstly I want to say good morning to the Excellencies, respected teachers, and my dear friends. As we all know that we gathered at this point to celebrate this auspicious event, I like to talk over the environment to be able to make you aware of our constantly decreasing environment so that all of us together can be effective in preserving our environment by using certain helpful actions. As we know that we live on the planet of earth having different types of surroundings called environment within which we can eat healthful, take breaths fresh, and stay in safety. But, what happens to our lives if any way of organic or manmade causes of environment degradation occurs, we can’t think about the extent of loss to the human being and other life beings existence. The ecology balance and natural cycles has become disturbed that is quite hard to restore and give it an all-natural structure. However, there is a common saying that “prevention is better than cure”, so we never gets tired of attempting our best to save the environment.

Physical environment across the globe provides all of us a favorable needed condition and supports the existence and development of numerous kinds of life here. Natural or physical environment is given by the nature however all kinds of the living beings together constitute another environment called biological environment. Each of the environments is strongly connected to each other and makes a unique natural system for the life survival. If the biological environment gets disturbed, physical environment automatically gets disturbed and both hugely affect the human lives together. Another environment which is completely depending on the human is socio-cultural environment made by the human beings. Whatever environment is, it must be healthy, safe and secure to continue the evergreen life on the earth in present and future.

We should realize our mistakes and concern about the environment in order to keep it clean, safe and secure for the healthy life. Many of the human activities like deforestation, industrialization, and technological improvements and so many are leading our environment towards danger and keeping lives at risk by influencing the growth, development and survival of all organisms. Various types of environmental pollution such as water pollution, air pollution, noise pollution, soil pollution, etc. are disturbing the ecosystem and causing variety of health hazards to the human beings and animals. Environmental pollution is damaging the ecosystem and destroying the delicate balance of the natural ecosystem. So , now-a-days environmental pollution is the matter of great concern and consideration for which we all together follow some effective steps and carry on until problems gets solved completely .

Thank You

3rd Speech on world environment day

Good morning to the Excellencies, my respected teachers and my dear friends. As we have gathered here to celebrate this occasion, I would like to speech over Environment. To run the life in healthy happy way, we all need a healthy and natural environment. Continuously increasing human population adversely affects the forests. Human beings are cutting forests to a great extent for making their home to live securely however they do not think of the problems arises due to the lack of forests. It completely disturbs the natural cycle between environment and life on the earth. Because of the over-population, the number of various chemical elements is increasing in the atmosphere which ultimately causes irregular rainfall and global warming. We cannot imagine the negative effects of global warming over the climate and lives of human beings and other living species.

According to the research it is found that the perennial snow mountains of the Tibet were totally covered by the thick snow in the past however those thick snows are getting very thin day by day over last few decades because of the global warming. Such condition is very dangerous situation and indication of end of life on earth which needs to be taken very seriously by all countries worldwide. It is very true that climate change goes very slow however slow continuous process is very dangerous. Because of the regular changes in the environment physical structure of the human beings and other living species has been changed from generation to generation. Increasing human population needs more land for agricultural cultivation and living purpose which force them to cut more trees and forests so the deforestation has its own dangerous side effects.

Increasing level of industrialization has countless harmful effects on the atmosphere because of the poisonous chemical emissions and dangerous wastes drainage in the big water resources such as Yamuna, Ganga, and other rivers. The ever changing (negatively) environment is not the issue of only some countries or government; it is the issue of whole human fraternity because we all are the reason of this negatively declining environment so we all are responsible to save our natural environment for the healthy survival of life on the earth. Protecting the atmosphere is the matter of high importance for all the present and future generations of mankind. The main purpose of my speech today over the environment is only to increase the public awareness among common people about the reasons of declining environment as well as need of healthy and natural environment for the life on earth. So, it is my humble request to all of you that please contribute to save your environment.(Environment Day Speech)

Thank You

speech on world environment day in hindi

"बात अगर वैश्व‍िक संकट की हो तो भले ही किसी एक व्यक्त‍ि का निर्णय बहुत छोटा लगता है, लेकिन जब अरबों लोग एक ही मकसद से आगे बढ़ते हैं, तो बड़ा परिवर्तन आता है।" संयुक्त राष्ट्र के महासचिव बान की मून की यह बात भले ही आपको छोटी लग रही हो, लेकिन बात जब पर्यावरण की आती है, तो ये दो लाइनें दो किताबों का रूप ले सकती हैं।

जी हां 5 जून को विश्व पर्यावरण दिवस के उपलक्ष्य में दुनिया भर में कार्यक्रमों का आयोजन किया जायेगा और उन सबका मकसद एक ही होगा, "पृथ्वी बचाओ।" पर्यावरण दिवस का इतिहास एक समय था जब अलग-अलग देश अपनी-अपनी सीमाओं में पर्यावरण की रक्षा की बात करते थे। लेकिन जब संयुक्त राष्ट्र का गठन हुआ तो यह चर्चा वैश्व‍िक हो गई और 1972 में यूनाइटेड नेशन जनरल असेंबली ने 5 जून को विश्व पर्यावरण दिवस के रूप में मनाने की घोषणा की। इसका मुख्य मकसद प्रकृति और पृथ्वी की रक्षा करना और पर्यावरण को बेहतर बनाना। आज के दिन दुनिया के लगभग सभी देशों में स्कूल, कॉलेज, विश्वविद्यालय के स्तर पर तमाम कार्यक्रमों का आयोजन किया जाता है, ताकि आने वाली पीढ़ी पर्यावरण की रक्षा का महत्व समझ सके। लेकिन दुनिया में और क्या-क्या होता है, इससे अभी भी हजारों लोग अनभ‍िज्ञ हैं। तो चलिये बात करते हैं, पर्यावरण दिवस से जुड़ी ऐसी बातों की, जो शायद आप अबसे पहले नहीं जानते थे।

पर्यावरण पर्यावरण गीत (एंथम)
