Qatar, with its keenness to contribute globally to the optimal use of water resources, has enacted legislation to preserve groundwater, regulate the use of seawater and make the protection of water resources one of the most important development strategies, said Assistant Undersecretary for Environment Affairs at the Ministry of Municipality and Environment Eng Ahmed Mohamed al Sada.
Speaking at the Fourth Sustainable Blue Economy Conference in Kenya on Thursday, Eng Sada said Qatar also implements many programmes that support the path of development in a way that reflects the aspirations of the people of Qatar and its future generations.
He called for cooperation in order to reduce the negative impacts facing the oceans and water from plastic pollution and the effects of climate change at national, regional and global levels by developing and implementing strategies, initiatives, plans of action and programs to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Plan suitable to the national circumstances of each country.
Sada said the conference provided an opportunity for discussions and consultations among States to develop a sustainable blue economy strategy for harnessing and using water resources in a proper manner, noting that such efforts would help all countries, especially the developing ones, to promote their progress in the social, economic and environmental fields.
The Fourth Sustainable Blue Economy Conference was attended by many delegations and organisations concerned, aiming to promote modern techniques of water resources from sea and rivers and other challenges.
The blue economy term means good management of water resources and the protection of the seas and oceans in a sustainable manner to preserve them for present and future generations.
