Welcome to Sustainable Egypt, the blog of The Directory of Environmental Organizations and Environmental Government Agencies in Egypt.  The purpose of this blog is to provide information on sustainability, environmental and conservation issues in Egypt, and to also be a fun blog to look at.  My name is John Brainard and I'm the editor of the blog.  My niece, Starr Brainard, is living in Cairo for the third time in her life and she provides photos, some data & links, and may even write some posts for this blog.

Now to get started, bicycling is one of the most sustainable means of transportation, and here is a video of cycling through the crazy traffic of Cairo!
