Minister responds to Green Party call
The environment minister says he hopes government can buy into a 'large scale renewables scheme' to address a mix of climate change challenges on the Island.
Geoffrey Boot was speaking after the Isle of Man Green Party called for his department to invest in solar technology for public housing and government buildings.
The Climate Change Bill went through its third reading in the House of Keys last week and will now be scrutinised by the Legislative Council.
Mr Boot says while solar panels are effective government needs to be addressing the issues to a bigger extent:
Island's first rapid EV charger being installed
Mooir Vannin could be first of many
'Significant investment or redevelopment' needed at Ramsey District Cottage Hospital
Braddan Commissioners open expressions of interest for TT camping at Roundhouse
