Description

Refuse Refuse is the slogan Temehu.com has chosen to represent its online campaign to Keep Libya Clean.

Libya until recently was clean and as isolated from the outside world as Acacus still is today shrouded with mystery. Now, litter and litter!

No doubt the side effects of any influx of wealth and progressive economical growth would naturally include litter, neglect and fatigue. Far from being limited to Libya, litter is globally symptomatic of modern industrial life as a whole.

Those eager to digest and disregard neat order for litter and clutter, be ware: rubbish, refuse and garbage are piling up even in the most sacred archaeological sites of Libya.

Temehu.com will attempt to graphically project the scale of this catastrophe to the attention of all: Libyans, authorities and foreign visitors and tourists; hoping to engage them to reflect and positively react to the actions they occasionally enact.

We kindly urge both foreign tourists and Libyans to reconsider their practices and help reverse the process.

A civilised tourist flies all the way to an archaeological site to marvel at its wonderful beauty and immensely enjoy the magical satisfaction gained from being so close to such a distant past, is fine, and wonderful experience Libya is more than proud to provide. But why, dear friends, curse the sacred ground with plastic and glass?

Please let your friends know about our campaign to keep our beautiful country tidy and clean.

Thank you for your support. Best wishes from Temehu.com to all Libyans and Libya's guests.
