Yesterday, we had the privilege of joining Abu Dhabi's youth and professionals in honouring World #Environment Day at Sea World Yas Island. It was truly exciting to witness the enthusiasm and active participation of the youth, who are eager to make a positive impact on our future. During the event, we had the pleasure of hearing from esteemed speakers from the Environment Agency of Abu Dhabi and the Emirates Red Crescent Authority as they shared their commitments to a sustainable future. It was particularly inspiring to see how they are actively encouraging youth involvement and raising awareness about the importance of protecting our local environment. Their insights into integrating sustainable practices into their operations were truly inspiring. A highlight was discovering how the Environment Agency utilizes AI and digital platforms to preserve #biodiversity and protect our city's natural habitat, including marine life. This revelation has sparked ideas for potential innovations at #SOZO in the realm of #sustainability. Moreover, the event highlighted the critical issue of global warming. Attendees received valuable insights and recommendations on energy and water conservation, along with practical daily activities to help mitigate the adverse effects of climate change. Furthermore, the discussion addressed food waste as a significant contributor to global warming, emphasizing the release of harmful gases when dumped in landfills. Experiencing events like these enriches our understanding and fuels our desire for growth. We’re excited to implement these newfound insights into our projects and continue pushing the boundaries of what's possible. What valuable lessons have you gained from recent events? We’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

Many overlook the impact waste has on both financial outcomes and environmental well-being for a business. This is precisely where waste audits play a vital role. We understand the importance of knowing what goes in, what goes out, and where it ends up. A waste audit isn't just about trash; it's about uncovering opportunities for improvement, cost savings, and environmental stewardship. In embracing waste audits, businesses not only optimize their operations but also contribute to a brighter, greener future. Join us at SOZO as we pave the way for sustainable success, one audit at a time. #WasteAudit #Sustainability #Efficiency

Do green buildings cost more than conventional buildings? The reality is that there isn’t a definite answer to the question. Costs are subject to vary from one project to another depending on a range of factors. It is, however, worthwhile to note that green buildings don’t necessarily break the budget. The initial cost of a green building is said to be 2% - 3% higher than its counterpart. However, because they are developed to run more effectively, this cost is offset by reductions in operational and maintenance costs by 14%. The reduction in energy consumption helps recover 20% of the initial construction cost. Facilitating a healthier indoor environment and improved air quality, green buildings are a perfect alternative to conventional buildings with greater energy efficiency, lower utility bills, and lower operation and maintenance costs. Do you think the future savings from green buildings outweigh the initial cost? #greenbuildings #sustainablehomes

Last December, we had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with #SOLEDXB at their event, where we showcased our innovative #ORCA food waste digester. During the event, we successfully diverted a total of 350 kg of food waste from landfills thanks to the power of our cutting-edge technology. But our impact doesn't stop there! By implementing our #ORCA food waste digester, we not only diverted waste from landfills but also enabled the community to evaluate their waste production. This valuable data will be a tool to better manage and ultimately reduce food waste in future events. At SOZO Consultants, we are committed to #sustainable solutions that make a positive impact on the environment and communities we serve. The ORCA food waste digester is just one example of how we're working towards a greener and more sustainable future.
