The legacy we leave behind is shaped today
Environmental responsibility begins with simple actions. Throughout 2025, AlES JSC employees collected used batteries and waste paper, making a conscious choice to treat nature with care. These small steps added up to a significant overall result.
At the beginning of 2026, AlES JSC summed up the results of two environmental campaigns: “Discharge yourself!” and “The legacy we leave behind”…
The results for 2025 speak for themselves: 65.1 kilograms of used batteries and 4.5 tons of waste paper were collected through the efforts of the company’s employees. But these figures are not just statistics. Behind them lies attentive care, participation and a sincere desire to make the world around us cleaner and safer.
Environmental responsibility does not begin with loud words, but with simple everyday actions. Modern people are surrounded by technology, devices and objects that run on batteries. We use them at home and at work, often without thinking about what happens after the battery fails. Meanwhile, even one small battery thrown away in the general waste can cause serious damage to the soil and the environment.
That is why the “Discharge yourself!” campaign has found such a lively response among the employees of AlES JSC. Since the end of 2025, special boxes for collecting used batteries have appeared on all four floors of the company’s head office. This has become a convenient and understandable opportunity for everyone to take a small but important step towards environmental safety, shared Zoya Arzyukova, Head of the Environmental Protection Department.
The campaign “What will remain after us”…, dedicated to the collection of waste paper, received an equally warm response. Paper seems familiar and harmless, but behind every sheet are felled trees, wasted water and energy. Recycling waste paper allows us to conserve natural resources and give them a second life. One tonne of collected paper means saved trees, clean air and a contribution to ecological balance.
The special value of these initiatives lies in their unifying power. Some people brought used batteries from home, some carefully collected office paper, and some reminded their colleagues about separate waste collection. Such seemingly insignificant actions add up to a great cause, noted Saltanat Zhanakhmetova, Chief Manager of the Environmental Protection Department.
The environmental campaigns of AlES JSC have shown that caring for nature can be a natural part of the working day and corporate culture. It does not require heroic deeds – all it takes is attention, responsibility and a desire to leave behind not rubbish, but order and respect for the world around us.
By preserving nature today, we are protecting the health and future of our children and the world in which we all live and work. It is precisely these warm, conscious steps that make up the present – and a worthy – “legacy that will remain after us”.
