Different photographs showing close up and far away views of Pembroke Garigue Heritage Park. This park provides a very good opportunity for the younger generation to learn more about different flora and fauna of the Maltese islands, including endemic and endangered species. Education for sustainable development should be encouraged amongst all students through programmes such as Ekoskola, Young Reporters of the Environment and Catch the Drop campaign.

This video was shot in May 2014- the official opening of Pembroke Nature and Heritage Park, Malta. This park is the home of hard working bees. These insects are crucial in pollinating different wild flowers and agricultural plants. Moreover, bees produce unique natural products such as honey, propolis and beeswax.

Fortunately, there are ways to save water for everyone from certified germaphobes to compost-toilet-level conservationists. The average family of four uses 450 liters (120 gallons) of water a day, which is 164,000 liters (44,000 gallons) a year.
