Since the coronavirus pandemic broke out, there is a break breakdown in the "relationship between human systems and natural systems," according to the UN Environmental Programme. The World Environment Day slogan - "Recreate, Reimagine, Restore" - focuses on reversing the damage and restoring our ecosystems. On World Environmental Day, here are quotes of eminent personalities that motivate us to take action wherever we are.
