The climate crisis is the defining challenge of our time. Join us in taking urgent action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, build resilience, and create a sustainable future for all.
The Climate Action Authority is committed to raising public awareness on climate change, while implementing a robust legal framework to address its impacts. It leads national efforts in developing long-term energy and climate strategies, such as the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), and coordinates data to shape effective policies. The Authority also manages climate-related projects and creates incentives to support sustainable actions, ensuring real and tangible progress in combating climate change.
Mark your calendars! The Climate Action Authority has a schedule of exciting events coming your way. Stay tuned for more details on how you can get involved in the fight against climate change.
The Climate Action Authority is your go-to source for the latest news, reports, and insights on Malta’s fight against climate change. Stay up-to-date on our latest publications, research findings, and expert analysis on the critical issues shaping our climate future.
The power generation sector holds tremendous potential to lead the charge in reducing emissions. By embracing renewable energy sources like wind, solar, and hydropower, we can create a cleaner, more sustainable future while meeting global energy needs.
The transport sector is primed for a green transformation. With advancements in electric vehicles, sustainable fuels, and public transportation, we have the opportunity to significantly reduce emissions and improve air quality worldwide.
Industrial fuel use presents a great opportunity for innovation and efficiency. By adopting cleaner, low-carbon fuels and energy-saving technologies, industries can boost productivity while contributing to a greener and more sustainable world.

This page presents Malta''sclimate context for the current climatology, 1991-2020, derived from observed, historical data rmation should be used to build a strong understanding of current climate conditions in order to appreciate future climate scenarios and projected change. You can visualize data for the current climatology through spatial variation, the seasonal cycle, or as a time series. Analysis is available for both annual andseasonal data. Data presentation defaults to national-scale aggregation, however sub-national data aggregations can be accessed by clicking within a country, on a sub-national unit. Other historical climatologies can be selected from the Time Period dropdown list.
Observed, historical data is produced by theClimatic Research Unit (CRU)of University of East Anglia.Datais presented at a 0.5º x 0.5º (50km x 50km) resolution.
The climate of the Maltese Islands can be described as typically Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and relatively mild winters.
This WHO/EURO UNFCCC health and climate change country profile for Maltaprovides a summary of available evidence on climate hazards, health vulnerabilities, health impacts and progress to date in health sector efforts to realize a climate-resilient health system.
The WHO and UNFCCC Health and Climate Change Country Profile Project monitors the health impacts of climate change and progress in building climate resilient health systems. By publishing updated country profiles every four years, the project not only provides a snapshot on a range of national health and climate change indicators, but also creates a mechanism to track climate-related health impacts and responses over time. During the first cycle of the project in 2015, nearly 50 country profiles were published. The number of country profiles is being significantly expanded in the second cycle, with around 100 country profiles expected to be published by the end of 2021.
The country profiles are developed in close collaboration with regional and country level WHO offices, national health authorities, and health stakeholders. The overall aims of the WHO and UNFCCC Health and Climate Change Country Profile Project are to:

Malta ranks 15th out of 190 countries that show high risks of being harmed by climate change.
This was presented as part of the results of the Climate Vulnerability and Resilience Index at the UN Climate Change Conference COP29 summit, the Environment Ministry said on Wednesday.
The initiative aims to quantify vulnerability and address the acute challenges posed by climate change, particularly for Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
The Climate Vulnerability and Resilience Index or COVRI is a tool that provides replicable metrics to track and compare country performances focusing on climate change.
COVRI allows all countries to identify the features that expose them to the harm brought by climate change, and the measures to increase their climate resilience.
The results found that Malta ranks 15th out of 190 countries that show high risks of being harmed by climate change.
Although many SIDS and Small Island States like Malta have tried to increase their climate resilience, the cost is disproportionately for them, making it more difficult and expensive to adapt.
When it comes to showing excellent resilience traits, Malta ranked 23rd out of 190 countries, although very costly to achieve.
This is often not recognised by donors and supranational institutions, making the challenges to adapt for small states even harder.
Environment Minister Miriam Dalli as well as Simone Borg, Malta’s Ambassador for Climate Action, participated in multiple high-level events at COP 29.
“Small Island Developing States, including Malta, are among the most vulnerable to climate change,” Dalli said during Malta’s side event titled Fostering Climate Adaptation and Resilience in Small States and Beyond.
“Our heavy reliance on coastal economies and exposure to rising sea levels underscores the urgent need for effective adaptation strategies. The Climate Vulnerability and Resilience Index is a critical step toward achieving that.”
