Our Environment Agenda

Sustainability
for People & Planet

According to the United Nations, the world’s population could reach 10 billion by 2050. However, human activity is stretching the earth’s resources while exacerbating global biodiversity loss and climate change threats. Our planet may not survive the next 30 years if we don’t start making sustainable choices.

RYTHM is committed to advancing the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in every way possible, as it strives to reinforce the QI Group’s aspirations and responsibility to maintain the balance between our growing societies and the environment.

Pillars of Sustainability

Our goal is to positively impact the lives of the people and communities around us, and we do this by integrating sustainability into our every move.
