Houses, Hotels, Restaurants, Churches… Green? This photo has been captured from a bird’s view of the central part of the Maltese Islands. One can clearly note that only little space is left for vegetation, agriculture, wild animal habitats and natural green spaces. The development of countries and civilisation with all its beneficial advantages also brings destruction to green areas. One should also mention that the constant development and construction of new houses, industrial estates and other buildings bring with them more pollution due to increase in transport and also, noise due to the traffic which is another source of pollution. The building craze has taken the Maltese Islands by storm. A tempest that is sweeping away our greenery and replacing it with the debris left over in the aftermath.
