Dotted around the Gozitan coastline one can see many towers built for the island s coastal defenses. One such tower is Nadur`s famous tower, Torre Nuova, locally known as Ta` Sopu. It lies perfectly framed by idyllic views of our island’s countryside and the dreamy inlet Daħlet Qorrot which nestles on the right…Will this panoramic view of the sea and land change in 20 years’ time?… And if yes, will it be for the better or worse? What type of developments would have taken place?… Are existing laws capable of protecting this intrinsic beauty of our heritage?

However, it should be noted that most people are still unaware of which rubbish to dispense with in which bin. A leaflet providing due info would be convenient. * Ideally, the person/s in charge of unloading the rubbish should come around at least twice a week since the bins are overloaded.

Ideally, the mayor would be notified and a fine would be sent to the offender/s.

* This car carcass is what is left after some people stripped it off its parts after it was left there. * To prevent accidents such as conflagrations it would be good idea to dispose of a tow truck service so as to get rid of such eye sores.

* Unfortuantely, rules are made to be broken. This is just another example. Trash is left out either prior to the trash man’s arrival or much later!Consequently, it will be later visited by a pack of stray animals, notably cats and one can only imagine its aftermath….
