“Whenever I’m out and about in the desert or the coast it is upsetting to see the amount of plastic that does not need to be there,” said Mr Cowie, who usually does research work on the damage plastic causes to sea life, to The National.
An estimated 11 billion plastic bags are used every year in the UAE, almost four times the average number used per person worldwide.
