World Environment Day (WED) is celebrated on the 5th of June, every year. It was founded by the United Nations to raise awareness about the emerging environmental issues and sketch out strategies to protect our environment. Over 142 countries participate in World Environment Day each year.
The theme for World Environment Day 2020 is “Celebrate Biodiversity”. On the occasion of WED, India has launched 'NagarVan' scheme to create an urban forest in 200 corporation cities.
In a virtual meeting, Union Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate change, Prakash Javadekar said that, "Let us map forest lands and degraded land in cities. If that is reserved for creating these urban forests and these will work as lungs of cities."
