This marks as an important milestone for AGSI showcasing publicly our commitment to the UAE’s drive to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 alongside other fourteen companies. The announcement of the Net Zero Strategic Initiative 2025 was the first in the MENA region and places the UEA as a climate leader.
The transition towards net zero presents a new model of sustainable economic growth that leverages research, development, innovation, and clean technology and will act as a catalyst for investment and job creation. UAE has committed to invest US$50 billion to scale up climate action in the next 10 years. And we are proud to contribute to the nation’s ambition.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”248″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The signing of the UAE Sustainable Companies Pledge took place at the Dubai Chambers of Commerce during the13th National Dialogue for Climate Ambition (NDCA).
