First environment-friendly parking lot in Hurghada - governorate

HURGHADA - 21 June 2017 : Red Sea Governor Ahmed Abdallah said the governorate will set up the first environment-friendly parking lot in Hurghada.

In a statement on Wednesday, Abdallah said the solar-powered parking will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Earlier this month, the Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Patricia Espinosa, lauded Egypt's commitment to the UNFCCC which was endorsed by the Egyptian parliament several weeks ago.

The ultimate objective of the UNFCCC - inked by 197 Parties - is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that will prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system.
