Emirates has recycled more than 500,000 kilograms of plastic and glass over the course of 2022, by collecting discarded bottles onboard for repurposing. 500,000 kilograms is almost the same weight as a fully loaded Emirates flagship A380 aircraft.

The glass is separated by colour and crushed. This ‘cullet’ or recycled glass that is ready to be re-melted, is then sent to glass manufacturers in the UAE to include in their batch…
Allergic asthma—which is characterized by wheezing and breathing difficulties triggered by inhaled allergens such as pollen, mold, and pet dander—is the most common chronic disease among children, and it can persist into adulthood.
