Who we are:
Isle of Man Friends of the Earth (IoM FoE) is an organisation of concerned volunteers. We’re a local group, and part of Friends of the Earth UK. We campaign for a cleaner, greener Island. Members come from all walks of life: students, pensioners, builders, accountants, self-employed and many others. Dealing with man-made climate change is the most important issue of our time. IoM FoE is campaigning hard to ensure action is taken by government to dramatically reduce Manx CO2 emissions, to develop renewable energy sources, and to prepare for the impact climate change will have on our weather.
Our aim:
The protection of the Manx environment and the promotion of sustainable living and global environmental justice.
The work we do:
As a democratic organisation IoM FoE campaigns on the issues that are most important to local members, as well as working with FoE UK on their big campaigns.
The way we work:
Identifying changes to better protect the environment.
Raising greater awareness about important environmental issues.
Influencing politicians so that real changes are made
