This is attributed to the fact that our islands lack natural fresh water bodies such rivers, lakes or even mountains. To top all of this, we also experience unreliable rainfall patterns. Past campaigns regarding this matter, such as \u2018Water &#8211; Be the Change\u2019 were aimed at raising awareness amongst Maltese citizens in order to try and conserve this precious resource we lack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This issue was widely discussed with our Year 9 students these past weeks during Environmental Studies lessons. As educators we were very pleased to see that our students are fully aware of this issue and of what we, as a nation, can do in order to conserve water. As part of their assessment, the students were asked to create a poster which promotes water conservation. The following posters are a sample of the students\u2019 work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/317717745_420781080135309_1365796736513981035_n-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/317717745_420781080135309_1365796736513981035_n-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/317717745_420781080135309_1365796736513981035_n-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/317717745_420781080135309_1365796736513981035_n-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/317717745_420781080135309_1365796736513981035_n-1-203x270.jpg 203w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/317717745_420781080135309_1365796736513981035_n-1.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2801\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-203x270.jpg 203w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_5661-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"2802\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-766x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-766x1024.jpg 766w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-768x1026.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-1149x1536.jpg 1149w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-1532x2048.jpg 1532w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-202x270.jpg 202w, https:\/\/www.maltaseminary.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_20221130_085719-scaled.jpg 1916w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>contributed by teachers of Environmental Studies It is a well-known fact that our islands have always struggled with fresh water availability.
