  "account": "QNB Group launched Marine Life Awareness Month, an annual campaign in August, to commemorate the QNB Blue Pledge's foundation in 2025. The initiative encourages employees, families, and local communities to protect marine ecosystems and minimize plastic waste. Across several coastal markets, QNB entities organized activities such as beach clean-ups, waste reduction, environmental education, and employee advocacy, demonstrating how collective pledges can result in tangible environmental action.\n\nIn Qatar, the campaign emphasized employee participation and the shared responsibility of the Blue Pledge. QNB employees highlighted their environmentally responsible practices over the past year and stressed the role of individuals in preserving marine ecosystems. These messages were shared on the Group's social media platforms to raise public awareness and inspire sustainable everyday choices and wider community involvement.\n\nQNB executives reaffirmed the Group's commitment to marine conservation, integrating the pledge into the company's environmental, social, and governance strategy and net-zero goals. The initiative aligns with the environmental objectives of Qatar National Vision 2030 and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.",
