La ciudad del Mar Rojo de El Gouna fue testigo hoy, 27 de enero de 2014, de la firma de un acuerdo entre el Ministro de Estado de Asuntos Medioambientales de Egipto y la ciudad de El-Gouna para ayudar a implementar un plan integrado a fin de convertirse en una ciudad neutral de carbono.

El acuerdo lo firmaron el doctor Laila Iskandar, Ministro de Estado de Asuntos Medioambientales de Egipto, Hisham Zaazou, Ministro de Turismo, Corrado Clini, director general del Ministerio de Medio Ambiente de Italia, y Samih Sawiris, presidente de Orascom Development Holding como representante de la ciudad de El Gouna. A la firma asistieron Su Excelencia Real Maurizio Massari, Embajador de Italia para Egipto, y Ahmed Abdallah, Gobernador del Red Sea Governorate.

El Ministro de Estado de Asuntos Medioambientales, Iskandar, confirmó: "Este acuerdo ayudará al Gobierno de Egipto a conseguir una innovación destacada en los campos del medio ambiente y el turismo, mejorando la imagen global de Egipto y abriendo la puerta para los proyectos de turismo de Egipto y ciudades que estarán clasificadas entre las mejores dentro de las entidades neutrales de carbono".

Además, el proyecto estimulará la industria del turismo de Egipto y atraerá una atención internacional mayor, además de fortalecer los esfuerzos del Gobienro de Egipto de cara al desarrollo de los sectores del medio ambiente y turismo. Aparte, contará con unas ventajas destacadas para Egipto en la protección del medio ambiente, promocionando el turismo a nivel local, regional e internacional al incorporar la nueva transición a la energía renovable. El Gouna está posicionada correctamente para estar al frente de la implementación de esta estrategia ya que cuenta con requisitos para convertirse en la primera ciudad neutral de carbono en el mundo. El Ministro de Turismo de Egipto, Zaazou, explicó: "El Gouna podría estar preparada en breve para conseguir el título, y trabajaremos para la implementación de este proyecto en otras ciudades egipcias".

El acuerdo es parte del protocolo de cooperación firmado por el Ministro de Turismo; el Ministro de Electricidad y Energía y el Ministro de Estado de Asuntos Medioambientales el 14 de diciembre de 2013, con el fin de apoyar los proyectos de turismo de Egipto para la ayuda del medio ambiente a través de la creación de ciudades neutrales de carbono. Este protocolo ha sido apoyado con fuerza a nivel internacional, y representa un paso importante hacia la consecución de los objetivos medioambientales globales.
