GARBAGE!

    I have noticed on a few recent trips some folk are throwing their trash in the desert, this is in my opinion unacceptable, we should be leaving the dunes with no more than tyre tracks.
    We normally stop at a petrol station to get food and drinks which will be in a plastic bag, so use it for all your empty cans, sandwich wrappers ect and dump it in the trash can at the end of the day. Even if we do not re-inflate at Petrol Station on the way back, Municipality has provided dumpsters close to everyone’s residence, so use them!
    Lets not destroy a truly beautiful landscape we and others enjoy and not tarnish the Club image in the process of our off-road adventures.

    Club Members your cooperation in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

    +1 to Jessil

    And i would like to add small bit here, more than beautification of desert its very imp to not to leave anything behind as camels and other animals are dieing coz of eating garbage and plastic wht we litter.

    So please if you see some plastic bottle or can in desert please pick it up and if you see somebody throwing anything, please remind him/her abt the consequences.

    You need only goto Big Red to see how litter spoils the desert – both in terms of beauty and the pleasure you get from driving on clean dune.

    Sahmed: we all know that.

    Chng ur perception, half glass is full or half glass is empty. Then u can keep the other part clean, leave the place which is beyond our hand and im sure apart from doof doof animals no other type of animal will land there. :p

    Marshals please make sure that this is not repeated by any of our members in the future, everybody lead by example.
