The Emirates Diving Association (EDA) in cooperation with the United Nations Environment Programme recently conducted a GCC-wide beach clean up called ‘Clean Up Arabia', collecting 8.5 tons of rubbish from beach and underwater dive sites.
On 12 December, 9.30-12.30, a similar initiative is being organised by Emirates Environmental Group (EEG). Last year, ‘Clean Up UAE' attracted 17,000 volunteers, and this year is to increase that up to 20,000.
