The cow and the dustbin
by lycée IBN BATTOUTA de Kenitra, Morocco
If the cow had reversed the dustbin to
nourish itself, this may appear normal, though the presence of
cows in the arteries of a city is not "normal". But if a Man reversed the dustbin so that the cow can nourish itself from the waste poured on the ground, then which would be our judgement ? We need a sense of responsibility towards our environment…
3rd Prize :
This is not a war zone,
by A Lyceum of Paphos, Cyprus
Smoking debris,
waste and dust laying
about, this is not a
picture of a war zone
but of the so called
landfill just outside
the municipal area
of Paphos. Actually it is
more a dumping
place than a proper area of garbage disposal.
During our visit we spotted several points where fires broke out due to the excessive heat conditions.
Besides the risk of fire there is risk of infection and also to the contamination of the aquifer.
The authorities will move the landfill to a different location and we hope that this beautiful landscape will regain its past natural looks.
