A week long of paper and plastic recycling and promoting the awareness among the employees.

The activity aims to:

Encourage the Mosanada employees to adopt eco-friendly initiatives geared at reducing waste nationwide and to remind the public that reducing the use of Qatar’s resources not only can improve business efficiency, but help to preserve the environment’s long-term health. We will collect recyclable materials such as the list below by providing a collection box to be stationed at the Gharafa A office, Gharafa B and Al Khor accommodation.

ASD invites members of its school community to bring in obsolete electronics to be recycled in a responsible way. Education about the importance of correct disposal of e-waste will be shared

To showcase our support towards the Qatar Sustainability Week 2019 initiative, we at Mövenpick Hotel Doha will turn off all the lights in the public areas of the hotel between 7:00 AM - 1:00 PM respectively between 26th October 2019 - 2nd November 2019.

We will also urge our hotel guests to participate by doing their part to turn off lights within their respective rooms during this time period.

As part of the Qatar Sustainability Week 2019 initiatives, we at Mövenpick Hotel Doha will be observing no elevator day on 27th October 2019 for guests as well as employees in order to do our part to consume less energy.

The same will be communicated to our guests through our in-room television screens in order to save paper which would have normally been used to send out letters to the guests for such activities.

As part of our commitment towards environmental responsibility and sustainability, and to show our continuous support towards Qatar Sustainability Week, the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center will activate a "GO-GREEN" Awareness Campaign by sending an email to all DECC Management and Staff members which will focus on importance of preserving the energy (switching off the lights when leaving work space, closing the doors to preserve the temperature, switching off A/C or reducing the Mode, etc.

Recycling is very important as waste has a huge negative impact on the natural environment. Harmful chemicals and greenhouse gasses are released from rubbish in landfill sites. Recycling helps to reduce the pollution caused by waste.

Reducing carbon footprint & cutting down on electricity costs is as simple as turning off appliances when not in use. Today we will be reminding & encouraging our colleagues to turn off PCs, air conditioning and diming down the lights in the offices during non-peak hours to create awareness among our colleagues on the small part we play in conserving mother earth.
