Save the river Nile

We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children

A Native American proverb

On Friday the 13th of July ,I went on a walk early in the morning then in a small tour in the car just before the prayer

And I stopped to take some perfect shots to the Nile and the other side of Cairo countering the Zamalak Island from the Nile City towers side , it looked so great the two giant towers from one side and the wonderful old Imbaba bridge

Yet I was shocked when I found the garbage in the Nile along to the shore and its water floating , it was surprising , here I was standing in Zamalak , a high class area , or may be it is used to be high class area , the location were I was standing was just near the Bulgarian Embassy or Ambassador house ,you know the villa , the Spanish casa style

Anyhow beside taking photos for the beautiful scene I insisted on taking several shots to see the level of disrespect to the Nile ,the river which we were blessed to have ,I mean I found empty bottles, Macdonald's empty packs , soft drink cans and other stuff I can't image it .

It will make you sad because it spoils the scene , I mean can't that person with an empty water bottle wait for just a while till he or she finds a trash bin some where !!??

I think we all must do something regarding this problem ,as bloggers at least ,if we became that powerful that now the government is plotting against us then why do  not we spot light this problem , at least the small part of it , I know very well the huge part is the wastes of the factories ,restaurants and hotels , but let's go for the small part concerning the people's behavior towards the Nile  because this can be changed more easily

Dear Bloggers in Cairo and in the river Nile , take your camera with you and bring proof on how we destroy the inheritance we are leaving to our Children !!

Strangely people day and night boast of their religious believes forgetting that  cleanliness  is from the faith !!

I leave you with the photos and tell me what do you think ??Sick
