Garbage

Throwing garbage in the public places reflects a negative image of the country. Despite the development of the UAE, you can see garbage spread out in many areas although the garbage cans are put everywhere. The UAE is not the only country where you can see garbage thrown in the public places but there are some other countries like India and Indonesia.

• Why do you think people do not throw their garbage in the garbage cans?
  
• What do you suggest these people?
  
• What is your job as a student in the community to solve this problem?
