Malta – an island with a great and unique history. Within this island on can find amazing cities and citadels, like Mdina! And then, great rubbish in hidden areas! This photo shows a contrast between the beauty that man can create, the beauty that nature can create, and the ugliness that humanity can create. Humanity has lived along side nature for quite some time and has created some of the world’s wonders over time. One can ask ‘how can the same creature which created the marvellous citadel Mdina, could create this miniature mountain of rubbish?’ Some might say that in order to create such a wonderful citadel, hosting a variety of culture and such unique architecture, colateral damage must be made, such as the production of waste (this applies to everything, our homes, other cities and so on).

It is a big hassle to carry all your rubbish in your vehicle and go to throw it away in a field. You can just ring the local council and they can take your rubbish and dispose of it themselves. Building debris shouldn’t be thrown away in the fields neither.

This image shows a micro environment within a valley watercourse in Chadwick lakes. The irony is that not far from were this image was taken, eutrophicated areas could be found. This image shows just a fragment of what there actually is in the zone. Freshwater all over the world is becoming contaminated and its purity is becoming lost. In the Maltese Islands this is occurring more than ever especially due to the fact that the islands already have a scarce amount of fresh water. The contamination of ground water is leading to the destruction of many ecological zones along with the species which live within them. If nothing is done about this, not even a macro image like this one would be able to be taken.

A touristic village – Marsaxlokk – beautiful! Not after all the rubbish that is thrown / blown into the sea every week! Fishing for fish? Easier catch rubbish rather than fish. How long it takes for rubbish to disintegrate in the sea? Glass bottle – 2000years; paper – 3 months; matches – 6 months; cigarettes – from 1 to 5 years; plastic bags – from 10 to 20 years; nylon from 30 to 40 years; tins – 500years!

The prickly pear has been the tough plant that gave protection to the farmer’s fields. It has provided fodder to so many animals. It also supplied man with medicinal extracts for his health. What is man giving it in return? Garbage bags? Cans? Glass waste? Would tourists that visit our islands still take pictures of the beautiful countryside? Would man still take medicinal extracts for his health with all this pollution and rubbish in these pristine places?
