Complacency can prove to be our undoing in regards to our national response to global action on climate change.

In Malta, many a policy or measure tends to be driven by expedience rather than conscience. In order to succeed we need to think forward all the time and not get stuck in the past.

Malta's neutrality is a tool that should be treasured and actively used to promote peace and understanding between nations.
