Going green: Zero emission across different industriesConcern for environmental damage caused by industries' pollution has reached fever pitch globally. Proactive waste management systems practiced today are still in the "end-of-the-pipe" phase. They need to move beyond recycling to work at minimizing waste generation. This can be done by revisiting the entire production processes of different industries. Worldwide, companies are waking up to the fact that the only sustainable path to the future is the observance of the zero emissions doctrine. As a new paradigm, zero waste has to be embraced with a near religious zeal that goes beyond recycling waste. At the basic level, it would mean that the manufacturer takes back some part of the product for reuse. The significant barriers to zero-waste drive are evident. If there was resistance to setting up effluent treatment plants in the early 1990s, radical shifts in today's production process are bound to face stronger resistance. read more. Zimbabwe: Cheetahs Get IRB Sevens InvitationZIMBABWE sevens rugby has received a major boost with an invitation to the Dubai and George IRB Sevens in December. Zimbabwe's Zambezi Cheetahs last played in Dubai in 2003, and although they played in George last year, Dubai is their first major tournament in three years. Zimbabwe earns their invitation on their spirited showing at George last year, the European tour and the Mosi and Tusker tournaments this year. "That's what we have been working hard for since 2003," Bruce Hobson, the national sevens manager, said. "It is the full benefit of all the work that we have put in. Our potential is increasing all the time." Hobson, who has also been helping out with the national fifteens side's preparations for the Madagascar tie, said the Sables will benefit as well from the sevens commitments. read more. Collection and distribution of aidMany organisations have now fallen in- line with the Government's recommendations with regards to the collection and distribution of aid. "The best thing to do is to channel money and material aid through the UAE Red Crescent Authority (RCA) or the Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Charitable and Humanitarian Foundation, as we have the access and the expertise," says the RCA's Fahad Bin Sultan. "We have agreements at the international level that facilitate our work, so we would encourage people to work with us." In accordance with Ministerial Decree No. 5/386 for 1994, the RCA is the primary humanitarian organisation sanctioned to represent the UAE at the international level. The total value of its humanitarian projects to date exceeds Dh1.5 billion. read more. Grand Hyatt DubaiI drove up to one of Dubai's newest luxury hotels, the Grand Hyatt Dubai, with it's towers majestically standing watch over the edge of the emirate's historic creek. The hotel is a combination of resort facilities, luxury hotel guest rooms and suites, residential apartments and I'm told, one of the most advanced conference centres in the Middle East, all set within a lush oasis of 37 acres of landscaped gardens. The hotel claims it offers a first for a Dubai hotel - the concept of a city resort which includes first-class recreational facilities such as a Zen-inspired Grand Spa, tennis centre, indoor and outdoor swimming pools and jogging track set, and yet the hotel is situated close to the city centre, and just minutes from Dubai International Airport. The property has 674 hotel guest rooms and suites, luxuriously appointed and classically-styled, each providing ultra-modern digital technology and communications. read more.This page is gathered in a practiced configuration.
