Background info:
World Environment Day in 2025 will focus on ending plastic pollution. The Republic of Korea will host the global celebrations.
For decades, plastic pollution has seeped into every corner of the world, leaching into the water we drink, into the food we eat, and our bodies. While plastic pollution is a major concern, it is also one of the most fixable of today’s environmental challenges, with some obvious solutions at hand.
World Environment Day joins the UNEP-led #BeatPlasticPollution this year to mobilize communities worldwide to implement and advocate for solutions. World Environment Day will spotlight the growing scientific evidence on the impacts of plastic pollution and drive momentum to refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rethink plastics use. It will also reinforce the global commitment made in 2022to end plastic pollution through a global plastic pollution treaty.
Jeju Province in the Republic of Korea was chosen as the host location for World Environment Day. In 2022, the province declared a vision to become free of plastic pollution by 2040. Jeju is the only province in the country where household waste must be disposed of at designated recycling support centers. The system requires waste separation from the source, driving higher recycling rates and ensuring more waste is repurposed. Also, Jeju is the first province to introduce a disposable cup deposit system in the Republic of Korea.
