Preparations of the UAE National Day: "One Home One Tree"

Every year, UAE observes national day on the 2nd December. As it is a public holiday, almost every Emirati is out on the roads, in the restaurants, malls etc. There is an atmosphere of festivity across the whole country. This year, the Government of Dubai has launched an interesting environment friendly initiative called "One Home One Tree". The Dubai Municipality has launched a two-week campaign to distribute trees to every citizen across the emirate of Dubai. Such initiatives not only build a healthier environment but also promote a sense of belonging and loyalty to the homeland.
