10 maltatoday | SUNDAY • 29 DECEMBER 2019 WAS 2019 the year of Malta's climate-change awakening? The reason for this is twofold: civil society became manifestly concerned with the environ- ment — 92% of the Maltese population defined climate change as a 'very serious prob- lem' according to a Euroba- rometer survey published last September — and the govern- ment included green policies in its political arsenal as a di- rect result of that civil society awakening. 2018 saw a record-breaking 13,000 development permits issued by the Planning Author- ity, newly approved dwellings were up by 376% since 2013, and 2019 saw various permits issued on areas of ecological importance and high landscape value: Gozo's ta' Tutiet villa permit and the Qala ODZ villa permit are just two examples. NGO Moviment Graffitti or- ganised various protests on overdevelopment throughout the year, culminating in a dem- onstration against excessive development and environmen- tal exploitation in Valletta in September, drawing thousands of protestors. Prime Minister hopeful Chris Fearne already said that he would make the environment a top priority if he's elected in January and he admitted that the Joseph Muscat administra- tion failed on the issue of envi- ronment. Muscat's administra- tion was one that expeditiously promised the enlargement of Ta' Qali national park and the planting of 80,000 trees ahead of MEP and local council elec- tions, an acknowledgement of the electorate's green new pri- orities. But its environmental epiphanies were always knee- jerk reactions. Malta was late to join the global climate strike move- ment but join it eventually did, even though it was hardly a strike and was never followed up. In March 2019, the first student climate strike took place at University – students walked to Valletta from Uni- versity and joined other pro- testors there.
