Within the framework of the republican project "30 Good Deeds" dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Republic of Kazakhstan, various charitable, social and environmental events are being organized in different parts of the country. This initiative is aimed at promoting socially beneficial activities and increasing the social responsibility of the population. As evidence of this, on September 27, 2025, employees of the Emergency Situations Department of Shymkent actively participated in the environmental campaign "Clean Coast".

The main goal of this event is to clean the channel of the Koshkar Ata River, one of the city's favorite places and a natural resource, to rid the banks of garbage, and to promote environmental culture among the population.

The Koshkar Ata River is one of the most important natural features of Shymkent. It is not only a river with ancient history, but also a symbol of the spiritual and cultural image of the city. The river flows from its source, cuts through the center of the city and is closely connected with the daily life of thousands of residents. However, factors such as urbanization, population growth, and uncontrolled disposal of household waste threaten the cleanliness of the river.

Taking this into account, rescuers took on the "Clean Coast" campaign with special responsibility in order to contribute to environmental protection. They walked along the riverbed, collecting plastic bottles, broken glass, waste paper, and other household garbage and putting them in special bags.

Dozens of employees of the Shymkent Emergency Situations Department were involved in the action. Rescuers proved in practice that their main task is not only to ensure the safety of the population, but also to protect the environment and set an example for the population.

During the event, employees were divided into groups, each of which took on the task of cleaning a certain area. Among them were both experienced specialists and young employees. Young specialists, looking at the hard work of the older generation, felt the importance of environmental responsibility.

At the end of the campaign, representatives of the Emergency Situations Department made a special appeal to the city's residents. They noted that protecting nature is the duty of every citizen, not only of environmental agencies and rescuers. Each person's contribution is a guarantee that future generations will live in a clean and safe environment.

"Protecting nature is our common duty. If each of us, when relaxing along our rivers and lakes, picks up our trash and treats natural resources with respect, we can significantly improve the environmental situation. The Koshkar Ata River is not just a source of water, it is a part of our history and culture," said one of the rescuers who participated in the action.

Preservation of ecological culture is not just a slogan, it is a principle that should become a daily lifestyle for every person. Careful attention to nature directly affects a person's own health and quality of life. For example, the purity of river water affects the quality of drinking water, and the abundance of greenery affects air circulation in the city.

For the residents of Shymkent, the Koshkar Ata River not only brings aesthetic pleasure, but is also a key part of the ecological balance. Therefore, if events such as the "Clean Coast" campaign are organized regularly, they will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the city's ecology.

It is known that this campaign is part of the "30 Good Deeds" project dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Within the framework of the project, various good deeds are being carried out in different regions of the country. These include providing assistance to orphanages, supporting socially vulnerable groups, organizing Sabbaths, and environmental protection measures. Such a large-scale initiative mobilizes society to do good and increases unity.

The contribution of the Shymkent Emergency Situations Department employees to the "Clean Coast" campaign has become an important part of this large-scale project. This action has demonstrated their readiness to benefit society beyond their professional activities.

The "Clean Coast" campaign is an important step that demonstrates the care of Shymkent rescuers for nature, the city, and future generations. Through their work, they not only cleaned the riverbed of garbage, but also set an example for the city's residents, conveying the importance of environmental culture.

Protecting nature is the duty of every citizen. If each of us gets used to keeping our surroundings clean and not throwing garbage around, then not only Shymkent, but our entire country will undoubtedly become a green and clean state.

Preservation of ecological culture is a contribution to the well-being and health of future generations!
