The image above shows a box holding several waste materials from the aftermath of constructing and drilling the ground, some of which include plants. It further implies that for some construction sites involving drilling or just simple architecture, it can damage the environment around it. Due to construction for newer and more modern buildings, fewer urban areas are being used, if not replaced for the massive number of structures being built in Malta and practically even our entire world. Yes, it can help Malta’s image; however, we still require nature’s power for our daily life, which, in most cases, is being destroyed. Unfortunately, we can’t just pause construction as it’s important for some requirements. The choice is in their hands, but my suggestion is that they reduce the amount of construction done in a city or area.
