Global warming is the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth’s climate system. It is a major aspect of climate change. Global warming and climate change are often used interchangeably but important note, global warming is the main human-caused increase in global surface temperatures and its projected continuation. While there have been prehistoric periods of global warming, it is thought changes since the mid-20th century have been unprecedented.
Many physical impacts of global warming have already been observed, including extreme weather events, glacier retreat, changes in the timing of seasonal events (e.g. earlier flowering of plants), sea level rise, and declines in Arctic sea ice. The future impact of global warming depends on the extent to which nations implement prevention efforts and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
REDUCES AMOUNT OF WASTE TO LANDFILLS:
A landfill site (also known as a tip or dumping ground) is a site for the disposal of waste materials by burial. Landfill is the oldest form of waste treatment and have been the most common method of organised waste disposal and remain so in many places around the world. However unless they are stabilised, these areas may experience severe shaking or soil liquefaction of the ground during a large earthquake.
CONSERVES NATURAL RESOURCES:
In recent years, the depletion of natural resources has become a major focus of governments and organisations such as the United Nations (UN). This is evident in the UN’s Agenda 21 Section Two, which outlines the necessary steps for countries to take to sustain their natural resources. The depletion of natural resources is considered a sustainable development issue. The term sustainable development has many interpretations, most notably the Brundtland Commission’s ‘to ensure that it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs’, however in broad terms it is balancing the needs of the planet’s people and species now and in the future.
In regards to natural resources, depletion is of concern for sustainable development as it has the ability to degrade current environments and the potential to impact the needs of future generations.
PROMOTES USE OF SUSTAINABLE ENERGY:
Meeting the world’s need for energy in a sustainable way is widely considered to be one of the greatest challenges facing humanity in the 21st century. Worldwide, nearly a billion people lack access to electricity, and around 3 billion people rely on smoky fuels such as wood, charcoal or animal dung in order to cook. Along with fossil fuels, they are a major contributor to air pollution, which causes an estimated 7 million deaths per year. Production and consumption of energy emits over 70% of human-caused greenhouse gases.
Proposed pathways for limiting global warming to 1.5 °C describe rapid implementation of low-emission methods of producing electricity and a shift towards more use of electricity in sectors such as transport. The pathways also include measures to reduce energy consumption; and use of carbon-neutral fuels, such as hydrogen produced by renewable electricity or with carbon capture and storage. Achieving these goals will require government policies including carbon pricing, energy-specific policies, and phase-out of fossil fuel uses.
When referring to methods of producing energy, the term ‘sustainable energy’ is often used interchangeably with the term ‘renewable energy’. In general, renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric energy are widely considered to be sustainable. However, particular renewable energy projects, such as the clearing of forests for production of biofuels, can lead to similar or even worse environmental damage when compared To using fossil fuels. There is also considerable controversy over whether nuclear energy can be considered sustainable.
PROTECTS THE ENVIRONMENT:
Environmental protection is the preservation of the natural environment by individuals, organisations and governments. Its objective is to protect natural resources and the existing natural environment and, where possible, repair damage and reverse trends.
Due to the pressures of overconsumption, population growth and technology, the natural environment is being destroyed, sometimes permanently. This has been recognised, and governments have begun placing restraints on activities that cause environmental decline.
Deforestation itself is the removal of a forest / trees from land which is then converted to a non-forest use. The most concentrated deforestation occurs in tropical rainforests. About 31% of Earth’s land surface is covered by forests. The removal of trees without sufficient reforestation has resulted in habitat damage, biodiversity loss, and aridity. Deforestation causes extinction, changes to the climate, desertification, and the involuntary movement of populations.
REDUCES POLLUTION:
Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat or light. Pollutants, the components of pollution, can be either foreign substances/energies or naturally occurring contaminants. In 2015, pollution killed 9 million people in the world.
Major forms of pollution include: Air pollution, light pollution, littering, noise pollution, plastic pollution, soil contamination, radioactive contamination, thermal pollution, visual pollution and water pollution.
Growing evidence of local and global pollution and an increasingly informed public over time have given rise to environmentalism and the environmental movement, which generally seek to limit human impact on the environment.
OUR COMMITMENT
Global Visas will ensure the principle of recycling is at the forefront of anything we do.
Although we appreciate immigration itself is a document and paper heavy industry – by ensuring we reduce waste as much as possible, we can help make a small change.
We have highlighted below how we will endeavour to do this (along with other environmental friendly incentives):
PRINTING POLICY: We have put in place a robust printing policy. Our team has been fully educated on the importance of recycling and why reducing printing is of paramount importance.
USE OF SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS / PAPER: We have invested time to research and source eco-friendly products / paper. Whether this be office goods or more general use – we will ensure all products we use are sustainable.
ECO-FRIENDLY MERCHANDISE / BRANDING: An issue which is so important to our company – any branded products we use will be eco-friendly. For example all our corporate business cards and company flyers are made from 100% recycled cotton T-shirt offcuts.
EDUCATING OUR CLIENTS / PUBLICATIONS: Whether this be a notification in our email signature or clearly marked across all our publications and templates – a desire to make our clients think about printing and recycling is very important to us. We will endeavour to pursue this.
ECO-FRIENDLY TRADE SHOW MATERIALS: A final long term consideration and something we feel so excited about; sourcing an eco-friendly trade booth. We have in mind exactly what we want – please wait and see!!

I have provided some of my own personal testimonials over my years in immigration below; working and leading on very large projects.
Please do also view our introductory video at the following web link:
We look forward to working with you and meeting all your expectations.
Global Immigration Leader, Big 4
“Manny. You have really gone the extra mile in supporting the US Business Visitor Service. You have demonstrated real commitment and energy, working a late shift night while we try and find others to fill the position. I know that the other night you stayed until 4am. You are always so positive and your cheerful disposition and attention to detail has resulted in excellent client feedback. On Monday the key client came to London and she was effusive about the service. This is largely due the cover you provide.”
Internal stakeholder, Big 4
“Manny is a big reason why the move from (external provider) to the UK firm’s passport and visa provision has been so smooth. He’s an extremely likeable honest hard working guy who takes his role very seriously. We’re very fortunate to have him leading our dedicated team”
External client, Private practice
“Most of my contact was with Manpreet Singh Johal. He did the best job someone could imagine. Extraordinary service from his side.”
Team member, Big 4
“Working on two priority accounts is naturally pressurised especially where he has also been responsible for billing on both accounts; yet Manny delivers every time and this I believe is an exceptional quality.”
