Friends urge everybody to sign up to '10-10'

by isleofman.com 7th December 2009

As delegates from nearly 200 countries prepare to thrash out a deal to tackle climate change, Isle of Man Friends of the Earth is urging local residents to play their part.

Two weeks of negotiations in Copenhagen will culminate in a summit of world leaders who must agree on measures to curb emissions.

Some scientists are referring to the summit as the most important the world has ever seen.

Phil Corlett from Isle of Man Friends of the Earth says people in the Isle of Man can help without too much extra effort (play audio file):

Under '10-10' Friends of the Earth are urging the Manx Government to reduce carbon emissions by ten per cent during the coming year.
