ADM collects ton of waste during Yas Beach Clean-up Campaign

ABU DHABI, 9th February, 2016 (WAM) -- Abu Dhabi City Municipality, ADM, in collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Centre for Waste Management, and Advanced Company (cleaning contractor of the municipality’s premises), has recently conducted the Yas Beach Clean-up Campaign. The campaign reflects the municipal system's keenness to provide clean beaches of world-class standards, protect the marine environment and maintain the appearance of Abu Dhabi beaches. It is also intended to promote a social responsibility culture, and bolster cooperation with partners in preserving the environment and maintaining the civilised appearance of the city. The campaign, which witnessed the participation of the municipal employees from the Support Services Sector, was organised by Facilities and Security Division in partnership with the Abu Dhabi Centre for Waste Management (Tadweer), Advanced Company, and Averda Company for Waste Management. The municipal campaign succeeded in collecting approximately one ton of various types of waste, including paper, plastic bags, and metal and glass containers, and all pollutants and distorting elements were removed from Yas Beach. The municipality provided all participants with the necessary cleaning tools such as gloves, garbage bags and trash pickers. The municipality says that such campaigns achieve great results as they include programmes and projects implemented jointly with strategic partners in several areas including beaches, streets, tunnels and parks in order to ensure an ideal environment, and safe healthy community. – Emirates News Agency, WAM - http://www.wam.ae/en/news/general/1395291321769.html
