Today is World Environment Day, an opportunity to take action and celebrate our plant! World Environment Day, established by the United Nations in 1974, is celebrated annually to encourage global awareness and action for the protection of the environment. This year's theme 'Land Restoration, Desertification and Drought Resilience' focusses on growing forests, reviving water sources and bringing back soils to provide protection and revival of ecosystems. At The Great British School Trip, we are committed to encouraging education about the importance of protecting our environment and providing opportunities for young people to apply their learning inside the classroom to real life issues such as regenerating our ecosystems and protecting the environment. Discover our trips and resources themed to 'People and the Planet' and build your student's next environmental adventure!
