Driving Sustainable Change: EPAM and WWF Collaborate to Help the Planet

As the world continues to face pressing environmental challenges, it is critical that businesses and organizations partner to make a difference. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has joined forces with EPAM Systems (EPAM) to help protect the planet through participation in Earth Hour on March 25, a global event organized by WWF that encourages individuals and businesses to turn off non-essential lights for one hour as a symbol of their commitment to the planet.

High on the Himalayas
(but choking them with love)!!

Day had broken already and wanting to make the most from the first mover advantage, I decided to set off on my own to explore the surroundings.

How do you want to shape your planet?

One small step by humankind, one giant leap for the sustainability of our planet! While Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon more than five decades ago, we are yet to find new civilisations across the solar system or beyond.
