Extinction Rebellion to protest during Tynwald sitting

Mon, 14 Mar 2022


Extinction Rebellion Isle of Man said they plan to protest in Douglas tomorrow.

In an interim target consultation put forward to the public, 51% supported an emissions reduction of 45% or higher by 2030. Tynwald has now proposed regulations with a date half a decade after the date proposed in the public consultation. 

A spokesman for the local group said: "This is a disgusting betrayal, and one that makes our Island complicit in the death of our species' only home."

Campaigners plan to hold a protest during tomorrow's Tynwald sitting. They plan to occupy the Public Gallery and their voices heard and presence known while the sitting votes on the new proposition.
