This Bill is being proposed in further recognition of Climate Change as a common concern of mankind and in acknowledgement of the contribution of Malta to global efforts to address this problem.
 
The objective of this Bill is to provide for action so as to contribute to the mitigation of Climate Change by limiting greenhouse gas emissions resulting from human activity and protecting and enhancing greenhouse gas absorption by the natural environment. This will contribute to the prevention, avoidance and reduction of the adverse impacts of Climate Change and the reduction of vulnerability, enhancement of resilience, and adaptation to its negative effects.
