We have extensively discussed and summarized theoretical and practical issues related to the protection of human environment, formulated countermeasures and measures, put forward the slogan of "only one earth", and called on governments and people of all countries to make joint efforts to safeguard and improve the human environment and benefit all people and future generations.

This is the first meeting in the history of the United Nations to discuss the protection of human environment, and it is also the first worldwide meeting on environmental issues convened by the international community, which marks the awakening of all mankind to environmental issues and is the first milestone in the history of world environmental protection.

This conference has played an important role and influence in promoting the protection and improvement of the human environment in all countries of the world. In order to commemorate the convening of the General Assembly, the United Nations General Assembly made a resolution to designate June 5th as "World Environment Day".

2. The Second Milestone of Environmental Protection-Rio de Janeiro Conference

Since 1972, when the United Nations convened the human environment conference, human beings have made unremitting efforts to protect the "only earth" and achieved certain results. However, the facts tell us that human beings have not fully understood the true meaning of "there is only one earth" and are too slow to keep up with the continuous deterioration of the environment.

Global environmental degradation is still intensifying. 1984, British scientists discovered an "ozone hole" over Antarctica, 1985, and American scientists confirmed that this discovery triggered a new round of climax of world environmental problems. The core of this round of environmental problems is global warming, ozone layer destruction and acid rain deposition, which are closely related to human survival.

3. The Third Milestone of Environmental Protection-Copenhagen World Climate Conference

The full name of the Copenhagen World Climate Conference is the 5th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the 5th Conference of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol. This conference, also known as the Copenhagen United Nations Climate Change Conference, was held in Copenhagen, Denmark, from June 7, 2009 to February 7, 2009.

1Since February 7th, 1992, the environment ministers of 192 countries and other officials have held the United Nations Climate Conference in Copenhagen, which is another epoch-making global climate agreement after the Kyoto Protocol and undoubtedly has a decisive influence on the future climate change trend of the earth.

This is a conference known as "the last chance to save mankind". The conference was held in Modern Bella Center for two weeks.

Since the 1960s, environmental pollution and ecological destruction have become increasingly serious worldwide, and environmental problems and environmental protection have gradually attracted the attention of the international community.

1On June 5th, 972, the United Nations held the first conference on the human environment in Stockholm, Sweden, and adopted the famous Declaration on the Human Environment and the Action Plan for Protecting the Global Environment, putting forward the slogan of "protecting and improving the environment for this generation and future generations". This is the first conference in human history to study and protect the human environment in the world.

11300 delegates from13 countries and regions suggested that the opening day of the conference be "World Environment Day".

The delegation of China actively participated in the drafting of the above declaration, and put forward the 32-word policy of the China government on environmental protection approved by Premier Zhou Enlai at the meeting: "Overall planning, rational layout, comprehensive utilization, turning harm into benefit, relying on the masses, jointly protecting the environment and benefiting the people."

In the same year, the 27th General Assembly of the United Nations decided to establish the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) on the basis of the recommendations of the Stockholm Conference, and designated June 5th as World Environment Day every year, requiring United Nations agencies and governments and organizations around the world to hold various activities to protect the environment and combat public hazards around June 5th every year. The United Nations Environment Programme also publishes the annual report on the state of the world environment on this day.
