Signs Climate-Responsible Companies’ Pledge initiated by MOCCAE
Daikin Middle East and Africa has announced another key milestone in the UAE achieved with the recent signing of the Climate-Responsible Companies Pledge initiated by the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE).
This is in line with Daikin’s Environmental Vision 2050 and supports the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative and Clean Energy Strategy. The UAE leads the region’s efforts to climate change mitigation ahead of the country hosting COP28 this year and this pledge further reinstates the importance and urgent need for collaboration between the government and private sectors.
Daikin UAE was a part of the signing ceremony represented by Samer Alawiah, UAE Managing Director, signed the pledge during the 11th installment of the MOCCAE-hosted National Dialogue for Climate Action (NDCA). The NDCA, a sector-specific assembly, was attended by HE Mariam AlMheiri, Minister of Climate Change and Environment.
“This significant step formalizes Daikin’s alignment with the UAE’s international climate commitments, particularly the Paris Agreement, and supports the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative,” commented Alawiah.
As a signatory to the UAE Climate-Responsible Companies Pledge, Daikin UAE commits to step up its efforts to combat climate change by reducing its carbon footprint scope 1 & 2 to contribute to achieving the national net-zero target by 2050 or earlier.
