We pride ourselves in having organised homes and pleasant surroundings. Why does this not include public places which are ours as much as our own private homes? Our home is not defined by the boundaries of our house.

Everyone likes a heated bath to relax. But throwing a water heater in the environment will make the area looks shabby and depressed. Dispose of water heaters and bulky refuse in the Civic Amenity Site.

The iron balustrade at the upper Barrakka Gardens is protecting the visitors of all ages but does not obstruct them from enjoying the magnificent view of the Grand Harbour. Lower down one can view the canon which is also made of cast iron. This canon in the past was used to protect the Maltese from attacks by the enemy. Now this canon is an additional tourist attraction at this site. On the other side of the Harbour however the iron rods of the oil rig is a continuous eye-sore and is causing visual pollution.

Save the Fresh air of Urban Areas

The Knights of Malta were really forward looking when they included gardens in their plans of Valletta. These gardens are still popular today for when we visited the Upper Barrakka Gardens we saw people of all age-groups. The pity is that in the rest of the Maltese Islands gardens are fast disappearing as bulldozers move in and high rise buildings are being constructed in their place. We need to realise that gardens are an important source of fresh air of our urban areas and so they should be conserved.

STOP ALIEN INVASION

This is what remains of a large palm tree that provided shade in our school due to the alien species known as the Red Palm Weevil (Il-Bumunqar Ahmar tal-Palm). This pest was introduced in Malta when a large number of palm trees were imported from other countries. Usually, being an island, the water acts as a natural barrier, but this time was not enough to keep these pests at bay. If we had planted indigenous species such as il-Gummara, we would still be able to sit on the bench and enjoy the shade!
