Qatar is working on a major pro-environment project aimed at safeguarding the country's marine ecosystem by targeting "near zero" water discharge to sea by 2016.
The initiative is led by the Ministry of Energy and Industry in conjunction with the Ministry of Environment and involving various companies working in the country's energy and industry sector.
