The steps to be taken by environmentally friendly companies in the name of sustainability and development during the September 20-27 Climate Strike Week are of great importance for the environment. Many companies have announced their strategy plans within the scope of environment and sustainability. Strategic steps outlined include the implementation of zero emission targets by environmentally friendly companies to keep the temperature rise constant at 1,5 degrees. Again, in order to make sustainability more efficient, citizens should be made aware of waste management. In addition, with increasing the share of renewable energy in global energy resources, minimizing the damage caused by many factors that negatively affect the environment is also discussed.
ENERGY SAVING IS CRITICAL FOR EFFICIENCY PROGRAMS
Numerous companies announced their strategic moves that include their work and goals for the environment and sustainability. Among the current plans, increasing the share of renewable energy in the global energy market is of great importance. It is expected to increase the use of renewable energy sources such as wind, solar and water instead of fossil fuels. The energy crisis experienced around the world due to the Ukraine-Russia War once again revealed the importance of using resources efficiently. Energy savings are critical for efficiency programs. Standing against the deforestation policy is among the efforts of the whole climate-friendly approach, especially environmental volunteers.
ZERO EMISSION TILL 2050
Although zero emission targets in the short term do not seem realistic, reducing them by half is seen as a great improvement for the environment. Reducing carbon emissions by half by 2030 and reducing them to zero by 2050 are among the main goals of environmentally friendly companies. In addition, within the scope of sustainability studies, citizens' concerns about waste management raising awareness makes a healthy transformation movement inevitable.
CITIZENS MUST BE MADE AWARE ON WASTE MANAGEMENT
Causing water and air pollution due to millions of plastic wastes has started to take place among the responsibilities of citizens as a mandatory duty to work on the climate crisis. Environmental studies of people who understand the seriousness of the situation also reveal the formality of the environmental crisis. Thus, the development of various software and hardware related to waste management, as well as the awareness of citizens on waste management, is considered of great importance by environmental experts.
