Nafu li din hija sfida kontinwa għaliex it-tmexxija tal-pajjiż ikollha quddiemha strateġija għall-pajjiż kollu u waqt li […]

Il-prattika tal-konservazzjoni hija bbażata fuq il-valuri offruti mir-riżorsi tal-wirt arkitettoniku għal individwi, gruppi, komunitajiet u gvernijiet differenti. Iżda x’nifmhu eżatt b’konservazzjoni? X’importanza għandha fil-valur kollettiv tas-soċjetà tal-lum? Mingħajr ma nidħol f’teknikalitajiet, nistgħu ngħidu li fl-aktar forma sempliċi, l-konservazzjoni tinvolvi l-protezzjoni u l-manutenzjoni b’mod sistematiku u pjanat ta’ oġġetti, strutturi jew valuri li fil-kuntest storiku tagħhom, […]

It-tiżjin u ċelebrazzjonijiet fil-knejjes, toroq imlibbsa b’armar mill-ifjen, il-baned, il-brijju, l-ispettakli tan-nar. Dawn huma wħud mill-elementi ewlenin li jsawwru l-festa Maltija.

Kull festa ġġib magħha drawwiet partikolari li tista’ tgħid tiddistingwi waħda mill-oħra. […]
Bħala pajjiż irridu nilħqu l-mira tagħna li sas-sena 2050 pajjiżna jsir carbon neutral. Dan ifisser li rridu naqqsu sostanzjalment l-emmissjonijiet li nikkawżaw. Iż-żmien huwa kontra tagħna u għalhekk irridu nżidu l-pass li bih immexxu l-affarijiet filwaqt li hemm bżonn ta’ kuxjenza akbar dwar dak li huwa meħtieġ.

Għal bosta snin ilna nisimgħu dwar it-tibdil fil-klima kkawżat mill-attività tal-bniedem. Ilha għaddejja d-diskussjoni dwar il-miżuri li jridu jittieħdu biex dan il-fenomenu jiġi indirizzat. Illum, aktar minn qatt qabel, ilkoll nafu kemm huma kbar -effetti li qed iġġib magħha il-bidla fil-klima. Iż-żieda fit-temperatura madwar id-dinja qed tħalli l-marki tagħha u jeħtieġ li naħdmu aktar biex […]
