Open Call: Past members of FoEM
This year marks a remarkable milestone for Friends of the Earth Malta (FoEM) as we celebrate our 40th anniversary! We have been active in the Maltese environmental field since our foundation in 1985, under our initial name Żgħażagħ Għall-Ambjent (Youths for the Environment), evolving into Moviment Għall-Ambjent (Movement for the Environment) and in 1991 becoming Friends of the Earth Malta.

Malta’s high rise in greenhouse gas emissions: What does this mean for the green transition and how can we do better?
Climate change is here. 2023 was the hottest year on record. A 2ºC rise compared to pre-industrialised levels holds a dangerous consequence for the environment and what has been proved to contribute to the increase of temperatures is the rise of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions which are produced by human activity. Therefore, it’s crucial and urgent for global warming to stay below a 2ºC increase. Friends of the Earth Malta, alongside other environmental NGOs, advocate for a 1.5ºC target, in line with the Paris Agreement.
