          With remarkable environmental initiatives of global stewardship and combating global warming, the capturing and flaring of the landfill gas that was previously vented into the atmosphere unhindered to generate useful electricity by Green Energy Solutions & Sustainability LLC at Dubai Municipality Al Qusais Landfill site inspired me to lead the initiative Green Space- New Life that facilitated planting a hundred and fifty trees at Landfill site. The landfill gas flaring project at Al Qusais Landfill, is now successfully running 24 x7 and has been recognised to reduce the carbon footprint of Dubai, with the reduction of greenhouse gases, and creating sustainability generating 1MW electricity and targeting 15-20 MW of power from landfill gas in the next phase of the project. Engaged as Climate Justice Ambassador with Climate Reality, I am fully aware of the current climate global crises and lead many youth with commitment, and potential to meet the challenges of environmental sustainability in our own spheres under the umbrella of SynergY, a youth group which I passionately lead. During the past 6 months, alone this team has enthusiastically planted nearly 1000 tress in various locations across UAE. I am glad that we all understand that the renewable energy solutions are all being discussed globally, it is not enough to just discuss but it s important to do it. Our Initiative was reported by the NATIONAL TELEVISION CITY 7 NEWS DESK and all the National Media carried the story and vivid pictures.
