June is the month with the highest number of environmental days. On Tuesday June 8th 2021, @thegreens in collaboration with the Regional Delegation of Environment, Protection of Nature and Sustainable Develoment alongside some other civil society organizations went to Government Bilingual High School Mendakwe in Bamenda 1 Sub Division of Mezam Division of the North West Region of Cameroon to plant some ornamental trees and flowers as part of activities to continue to commemorate this year's World Environment Day that held on the 05th of June on the theme Ecosystem Resotration.
Prior to this tree planting exercise, @thegreens and thesame team had embarked in a stream clean-up activity as you can read here; https://steemit.com/worldenvironmentday/@thegreens/happy-world-environment-day-or-restoring-ecosystems
Tuesday's event also marked the commemoration of World Oceans Day, a global event dedicated to reminding every one of the major role the oceans have in everyday life. Celebrated under the theme he Ocean: Life and Livelihoods, the day strives to inform the public of the impact of human actions on the ocean, develop a worldwide movement of citizens for the ocean, and mobilize and unite the world’s population on a project for the sustainable management of the world's oceans.
Oceans are the lungs of our Planet and a major source of food and medicine and a critical part of the biosphere.
Sustainable land and air practices guarantee healthy and sustainable oceans. This implies if we take care of the air and land, our oceans will be healthy and sustainable. On this day, we did tree planting in a bid to contribute in restoring the land and ocean ecosystem.
You can watch the World Oceans Day Message from Inger Andersen to get inspired and take Ocean action.
Stay tuned to June Environmental Days Contest that will be launched in the days ahead.
