Clean Sharm PRESS RELEASE

Join in for a Clean Sharm!
Unfortunately the summer did not bring any improvement on the garbage front, on the contrary. The number of rubbish boxes declined, as did the number of garbage collectors. But on the positive side that let recently to another change in the management of SES, and we heard that since the this process started to reverse.
However the sorry state of our streets (not to mention the former beautiful desert surroundings) can be just a warning to residents not to give up in the efforts for a cleaner Sharm.
That will need the help of all Sharmers – get up and join!
Join in Clean Sharm and try to make a chance. One can complain and sit back, and one can take things in ones hand. Luckily there have always been Sharmers working quietly and unnoticed in their own special way for a better life of all of us. However working as a group will give us a chance to be heard and reach higher goals.
For a beautiful clean and environmental friendly city we need:
· A functional waste management system (timely collection of garbage, recycling and a well fenced-off sanitary landfill for non recyclable waste)
· Enforcement of the environmental law in order to stop illegal dumping
· Awareness about the danger of plastic (bags and bottles!) for our environment in general, and for the future of tourism in particular
Clean Sharm has several task forces.
On the forefront Clean-Ups are organized by the Clean Up group, to set an example and raise awareness.
Of course clean-ups have only a small and temporary impact, but are a perfect occasion to attract attention, inform people and make a positive contribution.
A good chance to show your willingness and DO something will be the next Clean Up on October 10 in Hadaba. Mark this day from now in your calendar and try to join in.
The EDU group promotes a change of attitude to garbage disposal with the famous motto: Reduce, re-use, recycle!
Indeed, if you care about this area, do realize that your own behavior makes a difference! Set the right example and put your garbage in the containers. Use your own durable shopping bags, watch/reduce your water consumption and limit the use of plastic bottles.
Last but not least there is the Core group, which works quietly behind the scenes, together with relevant authorities and organizations to address the above and more priorities.
Maybe we don’t need to go Green, but we definitely want to go CLEAN!
