‘We can’t go on like this’ | Astrid Vella
The Planning Authority is approving more development projects than ever before – specially in Gozo. But Flimkien Għall-Ambjent Aħjar president ASTRID VELLA argues that developers have now ‘crossed a line’; and that people will no longer put up with the loss of their townscapes on such a massive scale

In a recent press release, environmental NGOs - including FAA – raised the alarm over a 300% increase in construction and development in Gozo: arguing that this “is the result of the present climate where developers are emboldened by the ‘elasticisation of planning policies’.” Can you elaborate on that?

The second day of the Malta Sustainability Forum, organised by APS Bank, offered another selection of modules featuring top international local and foreign experts in their fields.
The first module on yesterday’s agenda focused on ‘Food for Planetary Well-being’. With speakers from all corners of the globe, the panel discussed in detail aspects of food sustainability – how human behaviour in terms of the food we eat and how it is sourced and produced is linked to climate change, biodiversity and food security. The discussion also highlighted the basic human right to food, as society races towards the 2030 target for the United Nations’ second sustainability goal – zero hunger.
