The day of environmental knowledge. Why is it important to preserve nature?

Global environmental problem today affects almost every corner of the world. Promotion of pollution nature – is one of the steps to preserve the environment. To this end on 15 April is celebrated the Day of environmental knowledge.

Environmental Issues

The Pollution of nature, depletion of resources, extinction of endangered species of plants and animals-all this is a consequence of human impact on nature. However, people can not only destroy but also create, and so they can preserve nature and restore what is not lost forever.

Environmental issues are:

• Environmental pollution;
• Inefficient use of resources;
• The impact of man on nature for selfish purposes (deforestation, drainage of water bodies, excessive hunting);
• Indirect human impact (e.g., hit a large number of CFCs in the atmosphere leads to the destruction of the ozone layer).

Since the problem exists, it must be given due attention. Many of us heard about this situation, but not everyone knows how to affect the environment. Therefore, the world day of environmental knowledge – this is an important step towards the goal.

International day of environmental knowledge. How did the idea of a holiday?

For the First time the proposal to create a similar celebration was made in 1992 at the world environmental conference in Rio de Janeiro. The UN as the organizer of this Congress focused attention on the environmental issues of the time.

In the end, one of the points of this conference was the creation of a new holiday-the world day of environmental knowledge. The day of action appointed for April 15.

Everywhere there are celebrated days of environmental awareness

Though the Day of environmental knowledge – it is an international holiday, not in every country it is held. So, in Belarus and is talking about the uselessness of this event. This approach is proved by the fact that in the universities and so taught good environmentalists during the training sessions, so the need for extra promotion no. So I think even professors of the University. Sakharov-leading University of the country with an environmental focus.

However, this situation does not mean complete disregard of environmental issues. On the contrary, in addition to the Sakharov University, working to protect the environment conduct biological and geological faculties of the Belarusian state University and the chemistry Department have created a project “Green chemistry”, directed, again, to aid in the preservation of nature's gifts.

Meaning of the holiday

The environmental Problem haunting humanity for a long time, and in order not to worsen the current state, everyone needs to contribute to the preservation of nature. It is clear that global challenges such as resource depletion or accidents at power plants, not under force to solve the common man, but even a small contribution each is able to influence collectively on the ecological state.

The Primary task of the Day ecological knowledge – to show people how important it is to preserve nature. The campaign makes us think about the pressing issues and about how important it is to solve them. The knowledge gained during the festival, should affect the relation of man to nature and to help him to keep it.
