Dubai Police, Dubai Camel Racing Club and furniture recycling specialists, Home Depot have partnered with Dubai Outlet Mall to present an enlightening showcase of recycled items that can be used in every-day life. The collection makes for an arresting and colourful display in the entrance to the Mall and is attracting the interest of visitors, both young and old.\u00a0 Items from which visitors can take inspiration include old wooden pallets made into bed divans and industrial drums cleverly transformed into comfortable and bright sofas and eye-catching easy-chairs.<\/p>\n
Dubai Camel Club have also presented a photographic display, which depicts typical Dubai scenes from over five decades ago, many of them featuring the desert animal.<\/p>\n
In addition, the display highlights to mall visitors how the use of single-use plastic is devastating the oceans and killing off marine life and how they can contribute to stopping that damaging process.<\/p>\n
His Highness, the late Sheikh Zayed incorporated sustainability as a core value in his vision, and the idea behind the display is to further his powerful agenda by highlighting how every-day items can be recycled in very creative and useful ways.\u00a0 Encouraging shoppers and the local community to think about how they are disposing of their unwanted goods, be these plastic cups and bottles, or their unwanted furniture is the aim.\u00a0\u00a0 The intention is that shoppers will leave the Dubai Outlet Mall with a keen sense of how they can be mindful of what they throw away and how, what may seem like rubbish, can actually go on to be renewed and useful.<\/p>\n
In addition to the exhibition, and in tribute to the late Sheikh Zayed, shoppers are also being encouraged to write messages of inspiration and positivity and display these on a giant board inside Dubai Outlet Mall.\u00a0 Representatives from Dubai Police and Dubai Camel Club have been among the contributors.\u00a0 In further celebration of Sheikh Zayed\u2019s vision, the Dubai Outlet Mall is also displaying, on an exterior wall, a giant mural depicting a desert scene and animals.<\/p>\n
