DPG demonstrated its support of the environmental initiative this year by encouraging stakeholders, tenants and employees to switch off all unused lights and electrical equipment for ‘Earth Hour’ on Saturday March 23rd, from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm.

DPG has supported the ‘Earth Hour’ initiative since its introduction in the UAE, promoting it through various campaigns over the years. Their involvement is part of the company’s ‘Responsible Living’ platform, reflecting DPG’s commitment to supporting various events and joint initiatives with authorities and non-profit organisations.

This successful initiative was held under the patronage of H. H. Shaikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council and in partnership with the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy and Emirates Wildlife Society and World Wide Fund for Nature. Earth Hour was first held in Dubai in 2008 and has since saved hundreds of thousands of carbon emissions.
