DUBAI’S REDUCTION OF CARBON EMISSIONS NO MEAN FEAT: Dubai Supreme Council of Energy’s announcement that Dubai reduced its carbon emissions by 33 per cent last year, exceeding the target of the Dubai Carbon Abatement Strategy 2021 by more than double, is great news. It signals a steady move by Dubai towards becoming a carbon-neutral economy by 2050. As a global hub for sustainable development, Dubai aims at providing 100 per cent of energy from clean energy sources by 2050 which will be no mean feat when it happens. The authorities have laid out the roadmap, it is for us residents to do what is expected of us to so the vision is realised. [COMMENT BY: Sharmila Dhal, UAE Editor]
