What is World Ocean Day?
World Ocean Day on June 8th was adopted by the UN General Assembly as a day to celebrate our shared connection to the ocean. Since then, it has become a global moment in the calendar for ocean advocates: consumers, NGOs, businesses, scientists and many high-profile champions to highlight their commitment to the ocean.
