| World Oceans Day - June 8, 2009 | 03 June 09 |
 Celebrate World Oceans Day on June 8th by exploring the life-giving role of oceans. Canada first proposed the idea in 1992 and in 2009 the United Nations declared June 8th as World Oceans Day. This year's theme is "one ocean, one climate, one future". The David Suzuki Foundation is inviting Canadians to organize an Oceans Day celebration of their own to highlight the importance of our oceans and promote their conservation. The Foundation will provide the ideas and tools to organize an event at home, school or in your community. You can register your own Oceans Day Event online with the David Suzuki Foundation. Their website offers fun and easy activities to organize including a scavenger hunt, sustainable seafood feast, or a shore cleanup along a favorite beach, river or lake.
