When interviewing the elderly at the Cospicua Home we realised how resourceful these persons were during the 2nd World War. They used their ingenuity to make new clothes for themselves, to make use of all the bits of food available and to create innovative ways of playing. We also need to use our creativity to combat the war against climate change and other environmental issues in the interests of all humanity. Let us be inspired by the people of the past in order to change our lifestyles for a better world!
