Society Magazine - April 2017

この問題で

In the debate over Earth and its changing climate, rhetoric
frequently suggests that we are destroying the planet. It’s
rather evident that the insatiable greed of humanity is
seriously damaging our precious Mother Earth. Without
thinking of our offspring’s future, we gorge on the world’s
natural resources. We are more like a modern-day camper than a forager of old who truly lived off the land. Moreover, according to the latest report by the Medical Society Consortium on Climate and Health, which represents more than half of US doctors, from rising levels of air pollution to increased water contamination and a widening range for disease-carrying mosquitoes, climate change
is making people sick. And unless the world takes strenuous
action, they warn, “those harms to our health are going to get much worse.”
A healthy planet and a healthy community go hand in hand. To fulfill this goal, we must protect the environment in which we work and live. Our voices and actions help in shaping innovative policies and business practices, and creating a groundswell that will eventually permeate all of our institutions. Whether it’s recycling or buying organic and local, getting rid of the second refrigerator and replacing light bulbs, driving less or not driving at
all, eating less meat, or being the environmental supporter in an institution, every small or large step is meaningful. Going vegan— eliminating our consumption of meat, eggs, and dairy products—is the single best thing we can do to protect our environment and reduce pollution. Read more about it on P.24 and find out why your veg choices are more sustainable than you may realize.

Society Magazine Description:

Society Magazine, a monthly family magazine published by Gulf Times newspaper in Qatar, mirrors the multi-ethnic modern society that is the Qatar of today. For over five years now, month after month, its well laid-out pages with crisply written content, including human interest stories, and sharply focused images have been the joy of families living in Qatar. The magazine offers a broad range of features, primarily based on lifestyle and social issues, relevant to Qatar expatriates and nationals.
We aim to set the benchmark for editorial credibility in the market with regular features and articles showcased in a contemporary, high-quality format. There is something to hold the interest of every member of the family from tiny tots to the adult seeking intellectual stimulation and easy-to-use information from topics as varied as fashion & beauty, health &wellness;, motoring, education, parenting and technology to arts and culinary tips.
Although the magazine’s content are not strictly advertising driven, its seamless and flexible editorial approach allows ample scope for well-written advertorials to be featured in every issue based on the cyclical and seasonal nature of local trends that dictate consumer behaviour. This understanding of the reader pulse powers issues focusing on health, travel, back to school, food, festive season etc.
The magazine can be described as both reader and advertiser friendly. The fact that it is distributed free of cost with every copy of the Gulf Times newspaper speaks a lot for its readership and reach.
