Yes for reclamation on land

Abstract

With the Labour Party favouring land reclamation, one might be forgiven for overlooking the significance of massive reclamation exercises being conducted on land, which involve the reinstatement of vast swathes of land which were previously in a decrepit state. A fitting case in point is the new family park at Marsascala to be inaugurated today, which was formerly a dilapidated and tumbledown landfill site dating back to the 1970s. The following mesmerising figures testify to the gargantuan task that the project team at Marsascala faced and to the scale of the recycling of materials conducted on site. The park covers a total area of 85,000 square metres, equivalent to over 10 full-size football pitches.
