I am from Palestine and I am the biggest fan of your podcasts...I think this one in particular is very important as we do suffer similar pollutions and I always think how we can change our mindset towards our environment...keep going guys and thank you!!

[@karlricha8577]

Brilliant and important sarde! She’s the minister of environment we desperately need!

[@chev443]

This didn't age well,she's now bending the knee the Berri

[@sgbadro]

Finally we have someone like Dr. Saliba to look and promote a better way to enjoy a safer Lebanon.

[@marwansal4175]

Guys plz consider a sarde with guests environmentalists/scientists including Ziad Abi Chaker, Dr. Saliba and others from Lebanese diaspora. This is a serious topic. Thank you Dr. Saliba for all you did

[@adnankahalah7085]

i love Najat's mindset ~ to end this Sarde with all the hardships we are going thru don't give in to the authority's negativeness with a clean from the heart smile with our determination to prove that this is our country and we are going to care of it more than you can ever comprehend "kill them with love". fact, that we hit rock bottom, but we will not give in to their devilish reasoning, we will get them (politicians) to be despaired by our love to each other and country. i feel you and you/we are not alone in getting out of this swamp.

Love this sarde soo much! Dr. Najat is an excellent guest! Please consider other environmentalists as well! This topic is so important !

[@Rushopium]

Seeing you hosting such amazing creative people , gives me hope that our country have a great chance to rise again ! Once the Iranian and remaining ASSAD tumors are uprooted …!

[@Harout.Joulakian]

This episode of Sarde directly speaks to the heart. Generally speaking, our country is at the bottom of Muslow's Pyramid, and the thought of being proactive to take action as a group and community on a national level is beyond our reach. I have been living in Qingdao, China for the last 20 years and the population increased from a mere 3.9 million in 2002 to a solid 11 million in 2020 as more people from the rural areas moved. With it came a lot of ongoing hard work in educating the citizens on environmental issues and quality of life. It took 3 days to run COVID test for 4 million people last year. The general thought of people being exposed to and be given the opportunity of taking part is just breathtaking. Sadly, seeing that our homeland is going backwards at immense speeds is heartbreaking. In 2019, when I went home for a short holiday, I spent 20 minutes cleaning up the beach (A habit I picked up living abroad). My 60+ parents were amused at first, then on my third visit to that beach, they were picking up glass shards and beer caps with me. My dad was asking, "Why are you doing this? It's going to be the same next week..." Another fact is that people find it easier to litter rather than walk 20 meters to a wheelie bin. :(

[@aou6499]

Dr Najat (with its arabic meaning) Saliba gives us again the feeling to be a civilized society with eyes on the future and not on the gloomy dark ages! The environnement is part of us as we are part of it and not respecting it is pure suicide! Thanks to this great team!

[@bulentisci6085]

Individual awaranes and enviromental awarenes are very important.Today's businesses need to take environmental considerations into account when making decisions about production management. Because it is a necessity to investigate the possibilities of recycling and reusing the products produced in today's conditions. Therefore, it is the primary responsibility of business managers to minimize the harm that the remaining waste from the production and unusable waste will give to the environment, and to plan the measures to be taken in advance.

كورنيش مدينة جدة كان مزبلة لأن الكل ياكل ويرمي على الأرض. كان فيه عمال نظافة على مدار الساعة ولكن ما يلبث العامل بجمع نفايات مجموعة من الناس في منطقة معينة حتى يجي غيرهم ويرموا نفاياتهم على الأرض. لم يتغير الحال إلا لما صار فيه دوريات من البلدية تعطي غرامات مالية قدرها حوالي 50 دولار لأي أحد يرمي أي شي على الأرض وينطرد من الكورنيش. بين ليلة وضحاها تغير الحال وأصبح الكورنيش أنظف من شوارع سنغافورة. مو بس كدة. حتى عقلياتنا تطورت. صرنا ما نرمي لأنه خايفين ناخد غرامة. صرنا ما نرمي لأنه المكان نظيف ونخجل تكون احنا الهمج اللي نرمي مخلفاتنا على الأرض.

ذات الشي بالبوسفور بإسطنبول من ٢٠ سنة حتى السمك كان لا يعيش فيه...(الشقيري قام بفيديو يشرح الموضوع) تم تنظيفه ليصبح ما عليه ... دائما يوجد حلول ولكن الشعب ايضا مشترك بالموضوع... يمكن البداية تكون خوف من الغرامة ومع الوقت ستصبح عيب وتتغير الثقافة من ثقافة رمي النفايات إلى ثقافة عدم

Instead of wasting energy on thawra every day in 2019 and 2020 so one week thawra and one week cleaning roads and villages . This to use energy in a productive way . Just small idea of what we can do if we plan good .

[@NemoN0body]

it's sad that she didn't mention how food also affects our environment, from greenhouse gas to water usage to land usage, it should always be mentioned in environmental discussions

[@mrmghannoum]

I believe Sardeh is / will provide good candidates for Ministers in Lebanon. I hope Sardeh will follow up with their guests to see if they are willing to be in the next cabinet and maybe use this platform to impose this on our government!

💯Great topic! 🇱🇧 is not alone! A 🌎 worldwide problem. Disseminate information for a respectful behavior of citizens and, adequate services from the relevant government. p.s. In spite of this, in my country persists the bad habit of rudeness, where crime is doing good business on the skin of honest citizens! " We'll die submerged in our waste" 😱🐝🐝🐝🐝Let's Save Them🐝🐝🐝🐝

Hey everyone, just to give more information on time 16:46 In Lebanon you could buy even a NEW CAR and the emissions class will be very low. EURO 6 for sure does not exist in Lebanon. In Germany, the emissions class are defined according to the year of Production of the car, and off course are defined by the European Union environmental law and many standards/regulations long time ago, The class emissions for Petrol cars: - EURO 1 ----> 1992.07 - EURO 2 ----> 1996.01 - EURO 3 ----> 2000.01 - EURO 4 ----> 2005.01 - EURO 5 ----> 2009.09 - EURO 6 ----> 2014.09 And to show you how fucked up the situation is in Lebanon, I got my BMW X6 from "bassoul heneine" , it was produced in 2012 , it is a FUCKING EURO 2. Tell this to a German, and he/she will go crazy. FYI: Cars imported from USA or Germany, are much better for the environment then buying a "Company Source" in Lebanon
