Nairobi - Whether through a litter clean-up around Mount Everest, a training programme in forest management Costa Rica or a music festival in Belgium, millions of people across the world will join forces to mark World Environment Day (WED) on 5 June 2011.

This year’s WED theme is ‘Forests: Nature at Your Service’, which highlights the crucial environmental, economic and social roles played by the world’s forests.
