Green Economy: Does it include you?

 

Commemorated every year on 5 June, World Environment Day is one of the principal vehicles through which the United Nations stimulates worldwide awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and action. The theme of the World Environment Day 2012 is Green Economy: Does it include you?

 

United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) defines a Green Economy as 'one that results in improved human well-being and social equity, while significantly reducing environmental risks and ecological scarcities.'
