Qegħdin nevitaw li nużaw il-kelma “żvilupp”għax inħossu li dak li qed isir f’din il-lokalità ma jistħoqqlux dan it-titlu, għax “biex nistgħu nitkellmu fuq żvilupp awtentiku, irridu nagħmlu mezz li jkun hemm titjib sħiħ fil-kwalità tal-ħajja umana, u dan ifisser li għandna nikkonsidraw ukoll l-ambjent li fih in-nies iqattgħu ħajjithom” (Laudato Si`, 147)…
