Oceans Day is celebrated every year on June 8 to conserve the water body through collective efforts and save it from the perils of human activities.
World Oceans Day 2022 theme is ‘Revitalisation: Collective Action for the Ocean’.
It aims at encouraging collective action for the preservation of the water body as the oceans are an essential link that connects us all.
The idea of World Oceans Day was first proposed at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
On December 5, 2008, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) adopted a resolution and designated June 8 as World Oceans Day.
