EU guidelines not enough for Malta’s mental well-being

Abstract

The mental well-being of Maltese residents may require a push beyond that of EU regulations, economist Marie Briguglio argued. Speaking at a conference on the links between the environment and the mental health of people, Briguglio explained that many environmental solutions that can help other EU member states may not be the local answer. As the European Union pushes electric cars high up its agenda, Briguglio envisioned a future Malta with only electric cars, clearing the air as car exhausts become a thing of the past.
