Environment Authority Launches “Green Industrial Cities Initiative”

Acting in cooperation with the Public Establishment for Industrial Estates (Madayn), the Environment Authority (AI) today launched the “Green Industrial Cities Initiative” (GICI), which aims to establish green belts in industrial cities and set criteria for the concept of launching a Green Industrial City.

In its first phase, the GICI envisages the planting of 400 seedlings in three industrial cities, which are Rusayl Industrial City, Samayil Industrial City and Mahas Industrial City.

The initiative reflects the Environment Authority’s efforts to act in coordination with environment partners from other sectors to improve Oman’s environmental indices at global levels
