Directed by the by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and celebrated every June 5 since 1974, World Environment Day is the largest global platform for environmental awareness and is celebrated by millions of people around the world.
The Earth faces a triple planetary emergency: the climate is warming too rapidly for people and nature to adapt; habitat loss and other pressures on nature have led to an estimated 1 million species being threatened with extinction; and pollution continues to poison our air, land, and water.
Getting out of this quagmire means transforming our economies and societies to make them more inclusive, fairer, and more respectful of nature. We must move from damaging the planet to healing it.
The good news is that solutions and technology exist and are becoming increasingly affordable.
#OneEarth is the World Environment Day 2022 campaign that aims to raise awareness about these three crises, while encouraging and promoting the celebration, protection, and restoration of our planet through various activities.
One of the fundamental pillars of the Bepensa Foundation is environmental protection and conservation. That's why we're joining this important mission through various programs focused on rescuing and protecting ecosystems.
Thanks to the valuable work of germinating and sowing plants in BioParque BepensaToday we are able to produce more than 7,000 trees a year, which are donated to promote reforestation.
Also, with our ongoing PET recovery program, ReQPETWe contribute to the cleanup and sanitation of bodies of water, beaches, cenotes, mangroves, and various endemic ecosystems in our region.
With the support of society and authorities, we have launched partnerships that strengthen our environmental work and foster ecological awareness and a more sustainable lifestyle among more people.
There are billions of galaxies in the universe, and billions of planets in our galaxy, but only one Earth.
At the Bepensa Foundation, we celebrate World Environment Day by reaffirming our commitment to the conservation of ecosystems and our environment in the communities where we operate.
