The United Nations announced World Environment Day 2026 will run under the "Now For Climate" campaign with the overarching theme "Inspired by Nature. For Climate. For Our Future," and official events kicking off in Baku, Azerbaijan. The campaign spotlights restoring habitats, pollinators, soil, forests, wetlands, and urban green spaces as nature-based solutions to cut CO2, bolster climate resilience, and help keep warming close to the 1.5°C limit. Governments, businesses, and communities are being urged to fund solutions, shift policy, and scale biodiversity protection now because integrating nature into climate action delivers immediate benefits for water security, jobs, and disaster risk reduction.
