Description
This year – despite the ongoing pandemic that has devastated the global community – Colombia, in partnership with Germany, hosted the main World Environment Day celebrations, streamed live online from Bogotá. Colombian President Iván Duque Márquez and Inger Andersen, Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), led global calls to declare it is “Time #ForNature,” a call to action to combat the accelerating species loss and degradation of the natural world. From Kenya, Thailand and Canada to the International Olympic Committee to Apple – governments, organisations and businesses made commitments #ForNature. Building on a dynamic global communications campaign, UNEP inspired and coordinated online events which were accessed by people from every country in the world in this historic effort to unite for nature. And the world responded, showing clearly that there is a groundswell of support for the environment. Millions of people – many of them confined to their homes due to the pandemic – came together online to remind us to, “Wake up! It’s Time #ForNature”. In spite of logistical limitations as a result of the pandemic, governments, the private sector, civil society and individuals across the globe joined in World Environment Day events, announcements and calls to acknowledge the importance of nature to our health, our economies and our societies.
