Clive Myrie to chair 'IOM's biggest ever debate' on sustainability

Wed, 22 Nov 2023

World-renowned journalist and TV presenter Clive Myrie will chair the Energy & Sustainability Centre (ESC) GreenTalks Live event.

GreenTalks live is a Question Time-style event organised by the Energy & Sustainability Centre Isle of Man (ESC) charity and sponsored by Ørsted and Manx Wildlife Trust.

Panellists who have been invited to attend include leaders of the Manx Labour Party, LiberalVannin and Isle of Man Green Party, climate change scientists, representatives from the business community and environmental organisations, plus ESC directors Ralph Peake and Dr Dave Quirk.

It will take place on November 28 and due to limited space at the host venue an invited audience has been chosen which represents a broad cross-section of the local community.

The debate will be split into two sections. The first focuses on the current state of the Island’s progress towards its net-zero targets, where improvements need to be made, and renewable energy options available to the Island.

The second debate will discuss environmental conservation, followed by a discussion on sustainability for businesses.

Reports, photos and videos will be shared after the GreenTalks Live event on ESC’s website.
