The pictures show illegal waste in fields. This type of waste has a negative impact on the environment. Nowadays, Government and Local Councils offer many services to the people to reduce this type of problem. For example, in Xewkija there is a Civic Amenity Site where people can take their bulky refuse. When tourists come to visit our country they will not be happy when they see waste in our countryside. Apart from this, it is a shame for us to ruin our countryside. One good thing is that today people are more aware and this problem is being reduced. Hopefully when we grow up this problem will be solved.

We must keep our environment clean. If you throw away the rubbish on the grass, around trees and streets, this is not healthy. Keeping our environment clean is important for our health and our happiness. Many people can get ill from waste thrown out and pollution is spread around us. People can also die. Throwing our waste away means that animals, insects and small reptiles can also die. Throwing our waste around is very dangerous – our streets become dangerous places where to walk, talk and meet friends. Our beaches will also be dangerous places where to go and build castles on the sand and play with friends. If we do not want that all these things to happen, we must put our rubbish in the right bin. We must and we should waste separate every day, every time we do have waste material.

If you see any trash in the playground pick it up and throw it in the bins. Everyone should be mindful by picking up after eating. If we leave trash in the playgrounds there will be more rats and germs. If we throw litter it can be dangerous for other kids. If we see pieces of glass on the ground we have to pick it up and throw it in the bins because someone can hit himself. Children can be running bare foot and cut themselves. Pieces of glass on the road can be very dangerous because cars can have a puncture. So glass should be thrown in bring in sites so there will be no accidents.

Recycling is important because if we don’t recycle it causes a lot of illness. It causes illness, sickness and a lot more things like that. You can recycle in the bins at bring in sites. The bins are there to recycle things like paper, plastic, metal and glass. In your homes there are bins but they are not recycle bins. You don’t have to buy those big recycling bins. You just put one for paper, one for plastic, one for metal and other one for glass. Recycle no matter what happens.

Ugly Things in a Beautiful Walk…Żurrieq

During Easter Camp this year, we went for a walk to Wied Bassasa organised by Majjistral Parks. Ms. Annalise Falzon was our guide. During the walk, we took photographs of different things, most of them nbeautiful:  like flowers and insects and beautiful views including Filfla and the surrounding fields. However, there were some ugly things too like the pile of stones in the picture. We didn’t like these because they make the area look ugly. Apart from being ugly, they will remain there for a very long time. We think that the people who put them there should have taken them back to where they got them originally or given them to someone else who needed stones like these for building. The whole area where there are the stones is now damaged and in fact there are no flowers growing there. Any visitors (even tourists) who visit the area, will think what a dirty place this is instead of enjoying the countryside and the amazing view of the sea and Filfla. We wish that people will stop littering our countryside.
