Manx Wildlife Trust CEO says lots of people don't realise its significance
The Island shouldn't be complacent with its Biosphere status, according to Manx Wildlife Trust's outgoing CEO.
It's an accolade awarded by UNESCO to 'unique and valuable landscapes' and there are 701 across the world.
The Isle of Man is the only whole-nation Biosphere, after receiving the status in 2016.
