No one can miss the heavy waste dump found in the area between Bulebel industrial area and bypass road when heading towards Zejtun. This area continuously suffers from contaminated heavy dump waste including television sets, broken glass, plastic and paper waste plus all sorts of other waste. Dumping waste is illegal not to mention an eye sore to the countryside. Moreover, it is detrimental to nearby fields, water resources and human health. The chemicals and non-biodegradable materials in the waste can affect the physical environment and the waterways by contaminating groundwater and soil. In this area, the illegal dumping of waste has become a huge environmental problem over the past years. Zejtun Local Council and the Malta Industrial Parks were contacted to clean up this illegal dump waste but this area does not fall under their responsibility. Therefore, we recall for an immediate clean up action by the responsible agency.

No longer shall we be looking up and getting a glance of our sun …but mountains of plastic. In this photo, the message I’m trying to convey is, the fact that if we keep on living by our selfish ways, sooner or later we won’t be able to look around us and appreciate our beautiful and natural surroundings. Instead we will be living in our own plastic waste. This degrading plastic fragment was found on a local beach one of the millions which litters our beaches … homes to marine organisms.
