World Environment Day was introduced to bring about positive action regarding preserving and safeguarding the environment. It is celebrated on June 5 every year and is hosted by a different city with a different theme.
India is the Global Host of World Environment Day 2011 and this year`s theme `Forests: Nature at Your Service` was chosen to encourage forest conservation and sustainable consumption for green growth, and in support of the UN International Year of Forests initiative.
