Hareem… the UAE is slowly cottoning on to being environmentally aware of the benefits of recycling - in Jumeirah, Dubai, the government have implemented an environmental iniative that requires people to recycle paper, bottles, aluminium, newspapers and so on. There a series of “Recycling areas” clearly signposted and labelled and the Dubai government is hoping that this has a ripple effect on the other Emirates. The fact that there is an area with facilities in order to promote a healthier and cleaner environment is defintely a long awaited start- inshallah publicity and education should help serve to serve this global purpose and inshallah the knock on effect is most yearned!:k:

You'd be shocked to know that UAE is the 2nd biggest country after USA with the highest levels of domestic waste.

Hareem…the answer to that in my opinion is definitely :nono:…when compared to western countries such as the UK- UAE needs to set up an infrastructure that has reserach and development into the whole Global issues- it also needs to invest and strategically plan for this to happen…UAE has to be part of the global initiative and awareness of todays global environment…the message I feel is not consistent within the Emirates and there are huge gaps of global awareness that have to be addressed…hope this helps hun..
