Today is World Environment Day. Here’s how the United Nations describes its significance:

World Environment Day (WED) is the United Nations’ principal vehicle for encouraging worldwide awareness and action for the environment. Over the years it has grown to be a broad, global platform for public outreach that is widely celebrated by stakeholders in over 100 countries. It also serves as the ‘people’s day’ for doing something positive for the environment, galvanizing individual actions into a collective power that generates an exponential positive impact on the planet.

At the Two Oceans Aquarium, we are celebrating the day with an expo, focusing on everyday green choices you can make in your life right now:

Raise your voice – not the sea level. Join us at the Aquarium, and spread the message via social media.
