UAE Committed to mitigate Climate Change
The environment of UAE is arid, hot and humid. Desalination and concrete structures in desert pose a threat to the eco-system. Lot of natural resources are used & rather over used to cater to the growing demands of ever increasing population. In such a scenario, the commitment of UAE governmental authorities, Eco NGOs like Bee?ah and EEG etc., responsible residents has risen many folds in the last few years. As the environmental threats increased their participation has also increased in direct proportion. I have always been associated in such activities in Organizing, Participating, motivating and encouraging others to follow suit. Recently UAE government has taken many actions that has shown to the public that they are serious in green drives and have encouraged public to co-operate and help them by not littering, conserving energy, switch to nature etc. I read in today?s national newspapers that Dubai Police & a team of volunteers have recovered 6 Tons of trash from the Sea water of the UAE ports. It is a huge number. All these items like tires, rims, cans, ropes, electrical appliances were disposed by irresponsible marines or other members of public. Dibai Police at the Ports Police Station does this every year and this shows their commitment. But that increases our responsibility. We must not throw litter in the ocean. Marines also when they anchor at the port must litter responsibly. Many litter bins are provided by the Dubai municipality and disposal of trash is not at all cumbersome. The news link is provided at the end of the report. A video was also posted by Dubai Police on social media. The same is also attached. Further, UAE has opened Region's first Hydrogen refilling station in Dubai. Toyota has produced a hydrogen powered car named Toyota Mirai and the same in the testing phase. This is going to be revolutionary as hydrogen has no carbon emissions. Its totally clean & green. For many years NASA has used hydrogen as a fuel for its space mission. The full report is also given below as a link for the ambassadors for further references. These were a few concrete and responsible recent steps taken by the UAE government to mitigate the climate change. Thanks for reading.

Hi, Rohan! Thank you for sharing UAE's efforts to conserve the environment. It looks like UAE is taking various aspects of the environment into control, from marine pollution to climate change. It's great to know that not only the government, but also the people of UAE are doing their part to protect and restore the environment. Great work on your report!

Hi, Rohan! Thanks for your report! It's really nice of UAE governments to put their effort in motivating the public to cooperate them. Their substantial movements are going to be the starting point to realize the revolution in the way of achieving environment conservation.

I have known about the 'Hydrogen Fuel' first time from your report. The use of hydrogen in Cars is very promising and its 100% Eco Friendly. Dubai has taken great initiative by establishing hydrogen filling. Developing countries should follow it.

It's good to see a big oil producer like UAE stepping us to the challenge.

Thanks for the interesting report. Your country is very interesting, but I always thought like you 'the environment of UAE is arid, hot and humid. Desalination and concrete structures in desert pose a threat to the eco-system'.
