Let's start with prosecuting litterers. will it happen? I doubt it.
Yes that is truly sad and our club
www.emarat4x4.com does hold cleanup campaign drives everynow and then and had great co operation from the concerned muncipalities. Sad part is its mostly the local emaratis who leave behind a rubbish dump when they leave , They are ruining their own countries enviroment. Check out behind big red on hatta oman highway after the weekends. Its absolutely
ing and also a lot of trash around farms. we have picked up and cleaned anything from gas stoves to matresses !
But the best was when we were on a wadi cleanup campaign near the border when an Omani patrol stopped and asked me what I was doing by the side of the road with a black garbage bag. I said what do you think I'm doing picking up garbage. By who's permission ! Sir this is sanctioned by the dubai govt showing him the dub gov T shirt even. He said well scoot on out of here as this is Omani territory !!!
