Indian Navy provides rescue training to coastal wardens

Eight-year-old Indian-origin student collects 15,000kg paper waste in Dubai as part of recycling campaign "I think it's important for children, like myself, to start recycling and spreading awareness about the environment from an early age, so we can acquire the habit of living green as we get older," she added. She was honoured on Monday during the 22nd edition of the Emirates Recycling Awards in Dubai. Tony won the paper section in the individual category for her efforts in collecting a total of 14,914 kg of paper waste, the report said. The eco-friendly drive had three categories - corporations, academic institutions and individuals/families - and the materials that were collected included paper, plastic, glass, cans, mobiles, among other items. Through this United Arab Emirates (UAE)-wide campaign, the Emirates Environmental Group (EEG) was able to reduce projected carbon emissions by at least 73,393 metric tonnes, it said.
