ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates - Thursday, January 23rd 2014 [ME NewsWire]
The
Mussafah Police Station, in collaboration with the Municipality of
Mussafah and the Merryland International School, carried out an
environmental initiative under the slogan: “Emirates our Environment’.
As many as sixty students from the school, in cooperation with the
Community Police Branch, conducted a clean-up of the area opposite to
the police station, picking up the trash, specifically plastic waste,
which has a serious impact on the environment.
Major Sultan Saeed
Al Raisi, Director of Musaffah Station at the Peripheral Areas Police
Directorate, expressed his heartfelt thanks to the school’s
administration for its keenness to raise its students’ awareness and
enhance the culture of environmental consciousness, and thanked them for
contributing to the protection of the environment.
It is worth
mentioning that the Mussafah Police Station participated in the “Green
Apple Day” events organized by the school to support the “Emirates our
Environment” initiative. 400 students attended the event, which aims to
instill the concepts of good health, nutrition, environment safety, and
the conservation of energy.
First Lieutenant Mohammed Saeed Al
Ameri, Community Police Branch Manager, presented a lecture. First
Lieutenant Al Ameri provided the students with tips on healthy eating
habits and fresh foods, such as apples, and the impact they have on good
health. Furthermore, a group from the Community Police Branch
participated in many of the “Green Apple Day” activities.
For her
part, Mrs. Susheela George, the school’s principal, stressed that the
implementation of the initiative will help educate students on the means
of reducing the use of plastic bags which harm the environment, as well
as the conservation of water and electricity in order to help future
generations. The initiative also intends to raise their awareness
regarding proper nutrition in order to maintain a healthy body, which
reflects the quality of their education and creates environmental
awareness among people surrounding them, since social responsibility
plays an important role in spreading environmental education and
awareness.
