Why does Glu Glu Pet celebrate international days?
United Nations International Days.
The existence of international days predates the very establishment of the Organization; however, the United Nations has adopted them as a powerful tool for promoting these issues.
Each international day offers many actors the opportunity to organize activities related to the theme of the day.
The organizations and offices of the United Nations system and, more importantly, governments, civil society, the public and private sectors, schools, universities and, in general, citizens, make an international day a springboard for awareness raising activities.
Generally, these commemorations are approved by the General Assembly through a resolution; sometimes, they are declared by the specialized agencies of the United Nations System.
In addition, the United Nations observes other anniversaries of key moments or events in its history.
To celebrate World Environment Day, Glu Glu Pet joins the 2030 agenda and its objective 15 Life of terrestrial ecosystems.

The loss of ecosystems is depriving the world of carbon sinks, such as forests and peatlands, at a time when humanity can no longer afford them.
Global greenhouse gas emissions have risen for three years in a row and the planet is on the verge of potentially catastrophic climate change.
The emergence of COVID-19 has also shown how disastrous the consequences of ecosystem loss can be.
By reducing the area of natural habitat for animals, we have created the ideal conditions for pathogens, including coronaviruses, to spread.
Faced with this great problem, World Environment Day focuses on the restoration of ecosystems with the slogan "Reimagine, recreate, restore".
Restoring ecosystems means preventing, stopping and reversing this damage, moving from exploiting nature to curing it. To this end, and precisely on this day, the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021-2030) will kick off, a global mission to revive billions of hectares, from forests to farmland, from the tops of mountains to the depths of the sea. Only with healthy ecosystems can we improve people's livelihoods, counteract climate change and stop the collapse of biodiversity.
We join this day, with our compostable and biodegradable bags from the Earth rated brand.

To take care of our ecosystem we can all put our grain of sand.
On this day from Glu Glu Pet, we encourage everyone who has a pet to use these bags or any other biodegradable or compostable bag, to collaborate in this great mission that is to take care of our Environment, not plastic and the Environment.
If you want to add one more grain of sand, the UN Environment offers you a manual where they tell you how to restore an ecosystem, it has published a practical guide that provides an introduction to the range of actions that can postpone and stop the degradation of ecosystems and promote your recovery.

Glu Glu Pet wants to make the 2030 agenda visible and collaborate in giving greater importance to the 17 sustainable development goals, and what better day for goal 15 than the International Environment Day, for this we show you the application for the mobile of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) in Action:

From Glu Glu Pet we wish that all pet owners are responsible with the Environment and are encouraged to participate in this initiative that is good for everyone.
Thank you very much.
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL ENVIRONMENT DAY.
