As part of Mowasalat (Karwa)’s commitment to environmental sustainability and the enhancement of green spaces, the company, in collaboration with the Ministry of Municipality, organized a tree-planting event at Mesaimeer bus depot. The event was held on Wednesday, 19 February 2025, in the presence of HE Sheikh Suhaim Al-Thani, the Senior Representative of the Municipality and Environment, Public Parks Department, and Mr. Khalid Al Kaabi, Mowasalat (Karwa) HSSE Director.
This initiative aims to increase green spaces and raise environmental awareness int the society. It is part of Mowasalat (Karwa) endeavours to reduce carbon emissions, as 350 trees of different types have been planted to help absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide and improve air quality.
The trees planted were carefully selected to include species suitable for the local environment, such as sidr and jujube trees, Assyrian plum, mulberry, Indian almond, lemon, tamarind, and other plant species. These trees contribute to providing shade, lowering temperatures in surrounding areas, as well as promoting biodiversity and supporting wildlife.
This initiative garnered significant participation from Mowasalat (Karwa) drivers, who made a concerted effort to plant the trees themselves. Additionally, they showed a strong interest in understanding the essential information about tree varieties and the best care practices, demonstrating their commitment to environmental and social responsibility and their role in the success of the initiative.
To ensure maximum benefit from the initiative, identification plaques were installed for each tree using weather-resistant materials, to spread awareness and knowledge about the types of trees planted and their role in improving the quality of life. This event embodies our dedication to sustainability and preserving the environment, forming an essential part of our vision for a greener future for the coming generations.
