CSR - Green Page

Welcome to Admax Network’s ‘Green’ page, where you can find information about environmental responsibility and tips on how you can make yourself part of the growing green movement.

Admax Network is dedicated to grow awareness of environmental causes and educate how each and every one of us can help transform the world we live in. We see this as an opportunity to promote the idea that even simple actions can yield big results; things like printing emails only when necessary or turning off the faucet when you brush your teeth seem trivial on the surface, but gain enormous momentum when everyone does their part.

As part of our ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility initiative, we are partnering with Greenkampong.com, an online conservation community, to bring about greater awareness and discussion about the global cause. We hope to make real progress in the fight to slow and even reverse the damage caused by our industrial and technological development. Do your part today - find out below how you can be a part of the solution!
