Nowadays most farmers use more pesticides on crops to destroy insects, weeds, fungi, bacteria, and other things that feed on crops and spread diseases among others. Farmers are determined to gain profit as much as possible. Therefore they make sure that they get the crop yield they desire without considering the consequence of disregarding the harm they are causing to the environment and to consumers indirectly.

Glass, a material produced from sand is not as eco-friendly as we think. The making of this material is causing the emission of CO2 which contributes to the greenhouse effect. Moreover, the decomposition of this material acidifies the soil and formation of SMOG. Malta has a lot of abandoned houses and broken glass laying on the ground which not just affects the environment but the health of curious random people passing through these premises.

This picture was taken in Brighella street, Birkirkara. Dog waste bins without bottoms are quite useless and harmful to the environment because there would be nowhere to dispose of dog waste and so it ends up on the ground. To solve this problem we should inform the local council because it is its duty to provide bins for the benefit of dog owners and the health of citizens.
