Every last Wednesday of October, the world celebrates World Sustainability Day. This is one day of every year that serves as a reminder of the shared responsibility to create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
On World Sustainability Day, we celebrate the importance of sustainable practices and the need to protect our planet for future generations. The day focuses on raising awareness about:
- Environmental Protection: Highlighting the importance of conserving natural resources and ecosystems.

Sustainable habits are small yet powerful actions that can create a lasting positive impact on our planet. By integrating eco-friendly practices into daily life, we can all contribute to a healthier environment. Here are a few sustainable habits to consider:
- Use Digital Banking: Opt for online banking to minimize paper statements and reduce the need for physical branch visits.
- Practice Paperless Transactions: When checking your balance after withdrawing, opt for the paperless option to avoid printing of paper receipts.
