#WorldEnvironmentDay
#BeatPlasticPollution
Plastic pollution permeates every corner of the planet—even in our bodies in the form of microplastics. World Environment Day 2025 calls for collective action to tackle plastic pollution.
By drawing inspiration from nature and showcasing real-world solutions, the campaign will encourage individuals, organizations, industries, and governments to adopt sustainable practices that drive systemic change.
This year’s World Environment Day comes exactly two months before countries meet again to continue negotiating a global treaty to end plastic pollution. Join the #BeatPlasticPollution movement—because together we can create a healthier future. Add your event on the 2025 World Environment Day map and share it with the world!
