Dubai, United Arab Emirates – 21 February, 2016:More than 300 employees from Eros Group walked from the Mall of the Emirates metro station to the Eros House in Al Barsha in honor of Dubai Municipality’s Car Free Day. The environmentally friendly initiative organized by the civic body is now in its 7th consecutive year. The group began their walk at 8.15am and took 20 minutes to reach Eros House.
“We were very keen on taking part in the initiative this year and our employees jumped on the bandwagon when they found out as we are very keen in being environmentally friendly and adopting green measures around the office,” said Mr. Deepak Babani, CEO of Eros Group. “We hope this Car Free Day will increase awareness on air pollution, fossil fuel depletion and the increase in carbon dioxide emission and its effect on the environment. Our motoring lifestyle also inadvertently causes traffic accidents, stress and road rage and we hope people realize the impact it has on their health and adopt more environmentally friendly modes of transport like the Dubai Metro and RTA buses.”
