Explanation

The pairs are evaluated as follows:

  • International Ozone Day: Celebrated on 16 September every year to commemorate the signing of the Montreal Protocol in 1987.
  • World Environment Day: Observed on 5 June since 1974, following the 1972 Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment.
  • World Wildlife Day: This is observed annually on 3 March to celebrate and raise awareness of the world's wild fauna and flora. It commemorates the day of the signature of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in 1973.

22 March is celebrated as World Water Day. Therefore, pair 3 is NOT correctly matched.
