We aim to make the hunters conscious of what they are doing, probably unintentionally. We want them to know that if they leave behind their cartridges ‘skrataċ’ they are contaminating the soils and water aquifer with lead and plastic and we don’t want to let this happen any longer!

When I was just a little seed I asked Mother Nature, what will I be? Will I have flowers? Will I bear fruit? Here's what she said to me: Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be The future's not good for me Que Sera, Sera The environment’s not doing fine, you see. When I sprouted, I grew leaves I asked Mother Nature what lies ahead Will I have flowers, year after year? Here's what Mother Nature said: Que Sera, Sera,… Now I have seeds of my own They ask their mother, what will I be? Will I be cut? Will I be chopped?

It was a beautiful afternoon, the few clouds in the sky were a fluffy white and the breeze was refreshingly cool as we made our way to Buskett. One of the greatest problems that the world is facing today is that of environmental pollution, increasing with every passing year and causing irreparable damage to the earth.Upon our arrival we were left speechless with the major human interference to the trees’ habitat which as the years go by they provide the perfect homes for thousands of species of plants and animals. Another trace of human interference is the pollution made by humans, as computer parts and several other wastes were thrown in this habitat.

Nature communicates with us with its own language. It doesn’t communicate with us in our language but in signs that we humans take for granted. The photo (taken in the limits of Ħaz Zebbuġ), shows a picture of the ruins of a room in a field after being destroyed by natural forces. By looking at this photo I could see a corner (that was once part of the room) that means that nature is telling us to bring an end to more destruction to our environment. One way is by controlling the amount of buildings being built. The message is clear – if we try to destroy nature, it will destroy us back. As you can see in the photo, the only standing part is a derelict corner which is slowly being crept over by wild plants.

Is this the new cat’s home?

Wied Blandun is situated between Fgura and Paola. It is abandoned and nobody cleans it up. There are lot of dirty stuff, like this cupboard and there are a lot of other things like shoes thrown away in the grass. This cupboard is now used as a home for the cats that live outside the streets. It would be nice if somebody would take care of this and for example instead plant some trees. The Local Council can do this. If somebody took action it would be a more beautiful place and people will visit it more often and finally it will be renovated from this thrash that make it unsuitable for people to walk in this small valley’s passages.
