Today is World Environment Day. The theme is Your Planet Needs You - Unite to Combat Climate Change.
The damage caused to environment along with industrialisation is immense. Sri Lanka adheres to an environment conversation strategy to face all challenges. Government has enacted regulations to build an environment friendly culture.
The World Environment Day national ceremony was held at the Vihara Maha Devi Park in Colombo under the patronage of Ministers Maithripala Sirisena and Patali Champika Ranawaka.
Institutions and individuals who appraised on environment friendly jobs were presented Green Employment Awards while winners of the photographic exhibition organised by the Central Environment Authority received Green Awards and Certificates. Two books authored by Minister Patali Champika Ranawaka were also released.
