Action speaks louder than words On April 22, the world marked the 42nd Earth Day in a bid to mobilize communities into action to preserve the earth. Millions of people from more than 170 countries staged events around the world. The UAE, KSA, Bahrain, Jordan, Oman, Egypt and Lebanon thousands marked the day by promoting the Billion Acts of Green®.
The UAE hosted the “Recycle to Give Back to Earth” event, initiated by the Emirates Environmental Group with the cooperation of their student members who conducted a house-to-house campaign to endorse recycling in households. Although small in scale, collectively these initiatives can contribute to real change to the environment. Likewise each of us can do something similar by making simple lifestyle changes.
Since the summer holidays are just around the corner and most are already planning their next getaway, we thought we’d suggest in this May edition of Landscape some of the best eco-friendly lodges and hotels from the region and beyond to consider. Eco-tourism has become the buzzword of the last decade but it’s more than just a fade, the benefits to the environmental and economic contributions to small communities around the world are undisputed. So why not holiday in a luxury resort that also reduces your carbon footprint and promotes job creation in the local area?
