Celebrating World Oceans Day

8th June 2009

The concept for World Oceans Day was proposed in 1992 by the Government of Canada at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro and it had been unofficially celebrated every year since then. Official designation by the U.N. is a significant step in conserving and protecting our world’s ocean. The 2009 theme is: "one ocean, one climate, one future".
