A Checklist For the Environment Ministry

We have a new rebranded Ministry of Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change, led by YB Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad. What are among the issues that he should prioritise? We speak to two Earth Matters regulars, about what they hope the ministry will focus on, as we collectively tackle the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. First we hear from Andrew Sebastian, the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of the Ecotourism & Conservation Society Malaysia (ECOMY), and in Part 2, we speak to Ili Nadiah Dzulfakar, the Chairperson of Klima Action Malaysia (KAMY) , and member of Gabungan Darurat Iklim Malaysia (GDIMY).
