With the participation of 20 children and their parents, the Children’s Library at the Mohammed Bin Rashid Library hosted an event entitled “Be the Planet’s Hero,” led by the talented child, Reman Abdullah, and under the supervision, support, and management of the Children’s Library officers. The event aims to support the aspirations and vision of the UAE’s leadership to enhance the knowledge of new generations towards reducing the consumption of plastic and relying on environmentally friendly materials. These events support the vision of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council, to regulate the use of single-use products in Dubai. It also encourages community members to adopt environmentally-friendly behaviors, and promotes the culture of using recycled materials to achieve sustainable development.

The event began with a rich discussion session, where Abdullah presented an in-depth look at the harmful effects of plastic use on the environment and the importance of preserving the planet for future generations. She also explained an environmental game that she created, which received approval and interaction from the attendees. The event ended with the distribution of gifts to the participating children, to encourage them to continue their efforts to protect the environment and adopt eco-friendly practices. The library also honored Abdullah for her outstanding efforts and effective contribution to the success of the event.
