Headline Environment Conference Meets at Stockholm

Caption Description In response to rising world concern about the conditions of man’s habitat, representatives of some 130 nations converged on Stockholm, Sweden, in an unprecedented meeting to seek ways to translate that concern into a global attack on the common perils menacing the environment. The two-week U.N. Conference on the Human Environment (5-16 June) was called by the General Assembly with the aim of producing an international political consensus on ways of preserving and improving the environment for this and future generations.
Maurice Strong, Secretary-General of the Conference, addressing a group of people at a “Whale Celebration” held at Skarpnack. One of the recommendations made at the Conference was – Governments should reach an international agreement to stop the commercial hunting of whales for 10 years, and should prepare conventions to protect migratory animals and those that inhabit international waters; a global programme should be initiated to preserve the world’s genetic resources through conservation and seed banks. [5-16 June 1972]
