Oil Drums, Waste, Buildings, Clay and Sand Dunes… Spot The Odd Ones Out? In the above picture the stairs are built directly on a sand dune – and therefore directly leaving an impact on the beach – showing how man tried to make the beach more accessible to humans but in so doing he has let an impact on the beach itself. This brings us to ask ourselves a question: is Malta’s main source of income, tourism, and overdevelopment worth the destruction of not only its nature and charm, but what attracts tourists to possibly the Mediterranean’s most sought after island in the first place? It’s also interesting to note that the abandoned and derelict hotel (looking like it had its hayday around 30 years ago) is not only an eyesore to the environment, but built on clay! This means that indeed, it had to be abandoned as the clay would’ve given way!
Two Structures – both with a different purpose

Two structures, both man-made, but with a completely different purpose The above picture shows more than what it seems. They say a picture has 1000 words to it… well one word for this: WHY? This leaves us pondering about the visible structures in the picture, mainly the hotel and the tower. They are both a man-made intrusion in (what’s becoming a rare sight) the Maltese landscape. One difference: one was built hundreds of years ago as a fortification against corsair attacks, the other, well, recently built for luxury and tourism! The gist is: ok one’s a necessity the other a luxury, but they’re both after all intrusion in the middle of the countryside. However, it is also very clear to see the difference in the carbon footprint of both structures.
