World Environment Day is celebrated every year on 5 June. This year's motto for the day is "Only One Earth", highlighting the need to live sustainably in harmony with nature. "Only One Earth" was also the motto of the 1972 Stockholm Conference. Fifty years later, the motto is not only valid, but it is becoming even more urgent for all of us to understand that this planet is our only home, whose finite resources humanity must preserve.
