About World Oceans Day
World Oceans Day is celebrated on 8 June each year, raising awareness about the vital role the ocean plays in sustaining life on Earth. Recognised by the United Nations since 2008, the day highlights threats including pollution, overfishing, and climate change, and encourages action to protect marine ecosystems.
