Twelve Environmental and Health Organisations ask the government to take the lead in promoting sustainable eating

Friends of the Earth Malta, Veggy Malta, Action for Breast Cancer Foundation, Physicians Association for Nutrition International, BirdLife Malta, Moviment Graffitti, Vuci Kulletiva, Din l-art Helwa, Sigar, Earth Systems Association, Kunsill Studenti Universitarji, and ACT publish the report “Malta Vision 2050: A Plant-Based Food Strategy”, with 12 proposals to enhance sustainable eating.

Transforming what we eat is one of the fastest and most effective ways to reduce emissions and protect ecosystems. Animal agriculture is responsible for nearly 60% of food-related greenhouse gas emissions globally, occupying 80% of farmland while providing less than 20% of calories. Plant-based foods, in contrast, deliver most of the world’s nutrition with a fraction of the environmental cost.

Citizen Solutions: Community Assemblies in Gozo, Valletta and Floriana

In September, we held two community assemblies, one for Valletta and Floriana residents, and the other for Gozo residents. These brought residents together to discuss their common concerns and problems in their localities, especially in relation to the sea, and their possible solutions. They follow another community assembly in Manoel Island we held in May where we held similar discussions relating to public access and public spaces, pollution issues, and public wellbeing vs. private interests.
