This year, Mellieħa’s EkoSkola members chose the slogan ‘Litter less in Mellieħa’ as part of their litterless campaign and yremalta project. After doing an environmental review at school to check if waste is being separated in each and every room, it was time to check the litter situation around the school’s outskirts.

Marine litter originates from many sources and causes a wide range of environmental, economic, safety, health and cultural impacts. For example, marine litter can cause harm to sea life if ingested or even death if a marine mammal becomes entangled in litter (PEW, 2018). But there other consequences as a result of all this litter ending up in the oceans and seas. Does plastic affect sea water conditions? This study investigated the effects of marine litter, especially plastic, on sea water. Following an outdoor classroom activity held at Ħondoq Bay (Figure 1), a small sandy beach in the South East of Gozo, the students decided to investigate the effects of plastic litter on sea water temperature and sea water pH levels.

In this project, I will firstly discuss the circumstances causing the increase of multiculturalism in Maltese society owing to the influx of foreigners. I will then analyse a study by a local newspaper that found that some Maltese young people are resisting this shift in society towards a more inclusive and diverse society. I have interviewed a number of students at the school I attend, St Clare College Secondary, to ascertain or negate the findings of the newspaper’s study.
