The campaign, which kicked off in more than 130 countries, was established in 1993, and is a not-for-profit, non-governmental and apolitical event that unites communities with a common focus to protect the environment.
It aims to support local groups and organisations to plan and conduct various activities to clean up, fix up and conserve the environment, according to their website.
