World Environment Day (WED) strives to raise awareness and encourage action for the environment. It offers an opportunity to reflect on accomplishments and renew our resolve in overcoming the environmental challenges facing the world today. 

2023 was the 50th anniversary of World Environment Day. The host was Côte d'Ivoire in partnership with the Netherlands. Over the past five decades, the day has grown to be one of the largest global platforms for environmental outreach. Tens of millions of people take part along with governments, companies, cities and community organizations. This year we spotlighted solutions to plastic pollution. 

We are excited to connect you with the global effort, #BeatPlasticPollution
