| Summary: | As the twentieth century draws to a close, Earth's inhabitants are faced with the challenge of the Environment that sustains them. Mankind clearly needs to learn to live more sustainably and with less impact on the surroundings. Foremost among the parameters it is claimed that mankind is effecting is the climate of the planet. This basic parameter knows no borders. A small island state like (Malta or) Gozo is clearly very vulnerable to changes in weather patterns, overall temperature and possible changes in sea level due to the effects of climate change on the polar ice caps. The latest indications are that the Antarctic ice cap is already being effected with the result that icebergs of unprecedented size are forming and melting. N/A |
