I truly believe that no one ever creates success alone. Everyone needs a positive team with supportive people at his or her side. I am thankful to have been blessed with truly amazing people on my sustainability journey and throughout the writing of this book. I would like to express my gratitude to the many people who saw me through this book and to all those who provided support, talked things over, read, wrote, offered comments, allowed me to quote their remarks, and assisted me in the editing, proofreading, and design of this work.
Above all, I want to thank my family, who supported and encouraged me in spite of all the time I spent away from them. It was a long and difficult journey for them as well. Without them, I would not be the man I am today. I love you.
I would like to thank my team at Alleem Research and Development Center. You have given of your spirit to do your work with a true vision—much gratitude for your commitment to transforming lives in different parts of the world. You have been the wind beneath my wings.
And special thanks to my research and development senior officer, Shabih Fatima, who has worked tirelessly to make sure that this book was completed on time.
Last and not least, I ask for the forgiveness of all those who have been with me over the years and whose names I have failed to mention.
