The 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 succeeded in collecting approximately one tonne of various types of waste, including paper, plastic bags and metal and glass containers. The municipality provided all participants with the necessary cleaning tools such as gloves, garbage bags and trash pickers. 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. The campaign, which witnessed the participation of the municipal employees from the Support Services Sector, was organised by the Facilities and Security Division in partnership with the Abu Dhabi Centre for Waste Management (Tadweer), Advanced Company, and Averda Company for Waste Management.
