After researching and looking for articles/news published in the U.A.E, I was surprised to see many articles concerning global warming, I never thought that the U.A.E was looking into the issue deeply until I read some of the articles. It seems like some people are doing something about it but not as much as they should be, because the problem doesn't seem to be looked into seriously.We are causing this problem, as human beings, civilians living in this country, but whether the people or the government itself should do or should be doing something about it depends on people's decision on whether to think of their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren etc... in the future to have a good and healthy environment.Articles:

"The Middle East Is Setting an Environmental Example"
The article was published in 2001, even though the U.A.E was not a developed country at that time, they were still taking extra pre-cautions concerning global warming and 19 Arab countries were meeting in Abu Dhabi to find an easy strategy to reduce the cause of global warming. As I said, the main cause of global warming is new technology and not one country can deny having newer technologies given to them, but this is the point of these kinds of meetings, they don't have to reject being given this opportunity except for finding possible solutions to reduce this problem as much as they can.

"Abu Dhabi Schools switch off to mark Earth Day"
the U.A.E is among the largest energy consuming countries in the world. This article was published recently and has the solution to global warming. Abu Dhabi government shut down the electricity of 20 schools one day for 1 hour to see how much carbon emissions were reduced in that particular time. This move didn't only benefit the U.A.E, the whole world benefited from it. A very nice way to reduce carbon emissions consumed everyday and it encourages other countries to do the same thing, or should be doing.
