Featured Days
International Day of Plant Health
The International Day of Plants was designated to raise global awareness on how plant health can help end hunger, reduce poverty, protect biodiversity, help the environment, and boost economic development. 90% of the oxygen we breath comes from plants. 80% of all the food we eat comes from plants. Plant biosecurity is important in not only protecting the Earth, but also protecting humans.
International Day of Zero Waste
The International Day of Zero Waste was established to promote sustainable production, consumption, and better waste management. This day focuses on enhancing the circular economy and reducing waste. This year’s theme focuses on food—what we eat, what we waste, and how we can move towards a better circular future.
