During this scholastic year we, a group of students interested in Geography, carried out a water audit at school and thanks to our investigation the system of using the second class water of the main reservoir for secondary uses has during the last week of March 2012 started functioning. Before major restructuring works were carried out at our school the GeoClub members of 2006 presented this suggestion but the system was never connected.

I took this photo when I went for a walk with my family in the countryside in Baħrija. I still can’t believe my eyes that after so many talks about taking care of the environment, there are still people who don’t care and dump their rubbish anywhere they want. We are lucky that in Malta we have five different civic amenity sites which open every day and are free of charge for the public to make use of. Even Local Councils offer free services to come to our house and pick up bulky waste. Unfortunately sometimes people seem not to be bothered to use this service. We definitely need to increase the awareness and help people understand the real impacts of such actions. At the end of the day it does not only boil down to eyesores but direct impacts on our surroundings – which basically shape our lives.

This is freshwater running down a hill in Siggiewi after a heavy rain pour. All this water is being lost as there is no way for it to be collected for further use, especially in the fields. Imagine that every area has its own reservoir, supplied by rainwater. One would gladly turn to this water than use groundwater, which now comes at a cost, to irrigate the fields or to use domestically. Hence, building channels for water that lead to a reservoir would help twofold: first it reduces the amount of groundwater pumped up and then reduce the cost of water.

This road sign is not to be found in some remote rural area of Malta. It occupies a prominent position in the main square next to the Rotunda Church in Mosta, signaling to drivers that they are forbidden to turn right. The photo captures the piteous state of this road sign. Besides being horribly mangled, a good part of the road sign has gone rusty to the extent that not only has the paint peeled off but the metal has also correded. Moreover, someone has decided to use this sign as a miniature billboard, placing an advertisement on it. This area is visited by many Maltese and tourists alike. Isn't it time to replace this sign with a new one?
