Your post is well written and having lived shortly in Qatar I have to agree with you on all points. I was surprised to see how little they care for the environment. I guess they are limited by the notion of going "green" as everything natural there is beige and dry.A 2 Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15210451903434090202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660187.post-46048301677799283522010-01-08T16:28:16.026+04:002010-01-08T16:28:16.026+04:00wow! you, sir, have an elegant way to put your rag...wow! you, sir, have an elegant way to put your rage and frustration out.<br />I completely share your thoughts, even when I don't share your ability to put them in such a polite way, which in my experience, has more chances to find its way to stupid people.<br />Well done!!!<br />PD: by the way, in Argentina, as far as I can tell, is about the same.

Outdoors, the fines set by local government start a about $200 dollars for single items and go up. Different fines for litter coming off the back of a truck or building sites.<br /><br />Each day I take a small shortcut into the Techno Park next to one of the Dubai tips near Jebel Ali. Lately, a lot of building rubble and office rubbish is also getting dumped along the track by fly tippers.Bush Mechanicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660187.post-25478413776824728702010-01-08T09:28:08.297+04:002010-01-08T09:28:08.297+04:00Aaaawwwwww!

Fireworks are sold on the prior 2 days, and then at midnight, the masses go out into the cold to let them off. Of course, no one can be bothered to collect the debris, spent fireworks and bottles used for rocket launchers, so it all sits and rots in the snow and wet, waiting for the council workers to clean it up. <br /><br />I don't understand how people can allow themselves to do it. It's a complete lack of responsibility and social awareness.nzmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03160346268566279764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660187.post-88182444184025597342010-01-07T17:24:51.943+04:002010-01-07T17:24:51.943+04:00Laziness & arrogance........just about sums it...Laziness & arrogance........just about sums it up methinks.Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06546956519928584352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660187.post-5375668681574453442010-01-07T16:40:27.029+04:002010-01-07T16:40:27.029+04:00arrogance, laziness and also proof that they have ...arrogance, laziness and also proof that they have never really moved on from the nomadic tribe mentality - 100 years ago most rubbish was biodegradable anyway and by the time your tribe of nomads returned to a particular site, it might be years later, the rubbish had degraded, been eaten by goats or been covered with sand so who cared.<br /><br />Trouble is the litter has moved with the times but the mentality hasn't.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397103747971860352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19660187.post-70544580560590055112010-01-07T13:37:51.209+04:002010-01-07T13:37:51.209+04:00Well said, Mr. G!
