June 8 – World Oceans Day and Clean Air Day

   Posted on June 8, 2022

What could be more important than air and water? This day is set aside to learn about and take action for the preservation of the oceans and clean air.

Find out what’s happening worldwide, here, and in Canada, here.


Sometimes people are more motivated to clean up air and water if they are reminded that some cute creatures are in danger because of our mess…

And that is certainly true! Here are just a few of the species who could really, really use your help:

Remember, any time people are asking you to “save the whales” or “save the seals,” they’re also asking you to save the humans! We are animals, and we need clean air, unpolluted oceans, and healthy food chains of other animals, plants, and all the rest!
