From my article in The Sunday Times:
“The strategy document says we will have cleaner air and a “net zero” economy, which means our carbon footprint will be nothing or less. Yet, the document says the government will be looking to increase flights in and out of Malta.
“And the document does not say the government will be licensing speculators to extract fossil fuels from our territory and, still, five days after the document was published, new speculation licences were announced. If we increase planes and dig for oil, we will not be ‘carbon neutral’ even if we reversed our lifestyles to the Stone Age.”
