How concerned are Dubai residents about storm debris?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy storms we had last month, I noticed a lot of debris washed up on our building’s balcony. The balconies around us are also filled with plastic bags, cans, and other garbage. It’s concerning how this could affect the beach nearby and the wildlife that uses it. How urgent do others in Dubai think this issue is, and what steps can we take to address it?

The concern for storm debris like the one you mentioned is growing among dubai residents. Environmental awareness has been steadily increasing and people are becoming more conscious about their local surroundings. The UAE government, particularly in Dubai, places a high emphasis on sustainability and environmental protection, making this issue quite urgent.
According to the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD), there’s a zero-tolerance policy for littering and pollution. They have been very active in monitoring and cleaning up coastal areas. However, individual efforts from residents can greatly support these initiatives. For instance, the EAD organizes regular beach clean-up events where volunteers gather to remove trash like plastic bags and cans. In terms of urgency, you might want to check out what your local municipality or environment department is doing. In Dubai, the Department of Municipality and Environment (DME) has specific regulations regarding waste management and littering. They can provide guidance on how to handle storm debris properly and ensure it doesn't end up in waterways. For serious cases where large amounts of debris are present, a professional inspection might be necessary. Companies like ours at SanIService offer such services.
