Welcome Back

Welcome back to RWA everybody! 

It's been a record breaking hot summer! Here are a few interesting articles to get you thinking about YOUR environmental impact, here in the UAE and wherever you were over the summer.

EARTH OVERSHOOT DAY
was August 13th - the earliest on record. 

Earth Overshoot Day is like the day when we start overdrawing our bank account for the year: As of August 13th, we have already spent the Earth's Ecological Budget for the year.

Just 45 years ago, in 1970, our ecological budget lasted until December 23rd.
Where will we be 45 years from now?

We know that the UAE loves to make records, well on June 2nd the UAE was
"THE HOTTEST PLACE IN THE WORLD" with recorded temperatures of 50.5 degrees C.
