The rubble wall makes a huge part of the Maltese culture and the rural environment. It is a pity that in some areas, its efficiency is not appreciated enough. In this picture, the rubble wall has been replaced by the building of bricks to speed up work. The craft of building rubble walls is done by choosing rocks of different size and shape, which are then placed gently with caution and precision on top of each other. This is very beneficial to the environment due to the fact that it stops the wind from spoiling the crops but at the same time it lets air pass through to the soil. It also serves as a habitat to various small animals, such as the Maltese wall lizard. Why are we avoiding the use of the traditional method to let in new methods which are such an eyesore?

We only have one planet which we should appreciate and nourish its beauty the best way we can, and not spoil nature by throwing our unwanted trash in the countryside. The world was once a proud planet, but nowadays it is full of waste, and memories of what once was.

We should all do our good share to keep the environment clean and help it in every way possible, by picking up litter, by promoting ways not to pollute and much more. We should all do our share without boasting, as Blaise Pascal cleverly quotes: ‘The noble deeds that are concealed are most esteemed’.

The Guilty Conscience

“Your conscience is the measure of honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully.” It is a common temptation for one to vandalise the environment by getting rid of whatever he needs to throw away anywhere he deems is comfortable for him. Our conscience however should help us to be aware of our bad doings and rethink our actions to avoid harming the environment around us.

Halt Bad Habits

Halt Bad Habits Trying to absorb the beauty of the view but then… Why are we spoiling our environment with litter and garbage? Also, this photo clearly shows that apart from the garbage bag being thrown deliberately in the countryside road, the person concerned did not separate the waste, since orange peel and plastic can be seen in the same bag. This attitude is a lack of respect towards our environment and each other. These bad habits are leading to the depletion of our world.
