Because you’re staying at home a lot more, it’s a great time to start organizing the house and get rid of all that stuff you’ve been hoarding. Admit it, there are storage areas filled with things you will never use such as old electronics, cables, paper, books, and even old toys that your children used to play with.
Why not make use of the time you’re finally spending at home and start getting rid of these items? You can actually help save the environment by resorting to non-profit organizations that promote sustainability via recycling. With many startups and organizations working towards raising awareness on saving the planet, sustainability and recycling are on the rise in Egypt. You’d be surprised and proud to know that there are several entities that don’t just recycle your unused items, but some of them even pay you a small fee, too.
To help make it easier for you to recycle your waste, all you have to do is call them and they will come and pick it up from your home. So, you can start making a difference by separating your waste before you throw it out. Keep your plastics together, metal and tins in one group and paper cardboard aside to make the process a lot easier. Don’t forget that you can even recycle your used oils, too.

Nobody care the mix garbage produced from tourist resorts in Sharm El Sheikh peninsula and Marsa Alam coast, where thousand of large plastic bags are dispose just in the desert where tourist visitors are making quad excursions trough garbage bags creating a bad name for Egypt country. Need to sensibilize the Tourism and Envoirmental Ministries or in other many years Egypt deserts will be cover of garbage.
I hope that this message WI be taken in consideration from the Egyptian citizens. Thanks for the support that you will give.
