1. When is World Rainforest Day celebrated annually?
World Rainforest Day is observed annually on June 22nd to emphasize the significance of rainforests and promote their conservation. The day, initiated by the Rainforest Partnership in 2017, aims to raise awareness about the critical roles rainforests play in climate regulation, biodiversity preservation, and their cultural importance to indigenous communities. The theme for World Rainforest Day 2024, "Empowering the World in Defense of Our Rainforests," underscores the global effort needed to protect these vital ecosystems for the benefit of all life on Earth.
