          Read the text about World Environment Day. Choose the correct heading for each paragraph.

          World Environment Day

          1.

          World Environment Day is a global initiative celebrated annually on June 5th and was created to inspire people around the globe to become active about the environment and learn more about ways in which they can help to ensure the future of our planet.

          2.

          World Environment Day dates back to 1974, more than 40 years ago, when it was first celebrated in an American city, Spokane (Washington) with the theme “Only One Earth”. Since that year it has been celebrated in more than 30 countries worldwide.

          3.

          The United Nations decided to celebrate World Environment Day to make people around the world aware of environmental problems like marine pollution, human overpopulation, global warming and wildlife crime. Each year, World Environment Day has a new theme that major corporations, non-governmental organisations, communities, governments and celebrities worldwide adopt to advocate environmental causes.

          4.

          The theme for 2018 is “Beat Plastic Pollution”. This is a really serious issue because plastic pollution is dramatically affecting marine life with millions of fish dying every year because of polluted water. The host nation is India.

          5.

          If you want to celebrate World Environment Day, why not bring it to the attention of your parents, teachers and classmates? It is all about working together to take action for the planet, so try to get everyone you know interested in helping make a difference. For example, you can organise a campaign and inform people about how to be greener, explore your habitat, set up a recycling workshop or an exchange fair … so many things can be done!
