United Nations’ World Environment Day
Friday, June 5th, 2009
Happy World Environment Day! For the uninitiated, today is the U.N.’s equivalent of Earth Day. To learn more, check out the WED Web site here.
When you’re there, be sure to check out the Twitter for Trees (@UNEPandyou, for you Twitter twits out there) campaign and updates of David de Rothschild’s amazing Plastiki project.
(More about Plastiki, de Rothschild’s project to bring awareness to the cess pit that is the North Pacific Gyre, a story worthy of coverage in this reporter’s opinion, available here at The New Yorker)
