With a cover page designed by talented Emirati artist of determination, Abdulla Lutfi, the handbook is packed with practical tips to reduce energy consumption while infusing sustainable practices into every aspect of how families live, work, and play. For the younger ones, it also incorporates engaging activities for kids, designed to educate and inspire them about sustainability in a fun and interactive way.

The handbook also highlights simple steps to embrace conscious cooling at home, shedding light on energy star ratings for electronic products, all shared by Taqeef's team of engineering experts. By embracing these simple steps, families can make a significant difference in preserving our planet for future generations.

 

Tariq Al Ghussein, Chairman and CEO of Taqeef, said: "Across the UAE and the world, environmental and climate awareness plays an increasingly vital role. Our choices today have a profound impact on our children, communities, and the planet. So, as we stride forward into the future, let's ensure that the footprints we leave behind are small ones, for both present and future generations."

I've witnessed this firsthand in my own personal journey and within my relationship with my sport—it has been a game-changer time and time again."-- TradeArabia News Service
