world oceans day 2022
Oceans cover 71% of the Earth's surface and contain 97% of the world's water. Oceans have a big impact on temperature and weather because of their massive size. Both humans and other organisms rely on them for food. Oceans are rich in biodiversity and home to a diverse range of plants and species.
World Oceans Day is celebrated every year on June 8 in the hopes of conserving the water body via joint efforts and protecting it from the dangers of human activity. The purpose of the day is to raise awareness about the importance of oceans in sustaining life on Earth and to encourage people to take action to protect them.
'Revitalization: Collective Action for the Ocean' is the topic for World Oceans Day 2022. Because the ocean is such an important thread that binds us all together, it must be protected. It must be ensured that the ocean is no longer hurt, but rather rejuvenated.
The concept of observing World Oceans Day was first proposed in 1992 at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It was created to honor the world's shared ocean and to emphasize its vital significance in our lives.
Oceans provide sustenance for billions of people while also regulating climate and creating more than half of the world's oxygen through the creatures that thrive there. Human actions such as overfishing, oil spills, and plastic pollution, on the other hand, have hurt the water body and the marine species that it supports. World Oceans Day encourages people to increase their efforts to protect the oceans from further harm while simultaneously taking steps to restore their beauty.
On December 5, 2008, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) passed a resolution designating June 8 as World Oceans Day.
