Climate Board praises environmentally friendly vessel
The latest addition to the Steam Packet's fleet - Manxman - is being hailed a 'win' for the Isle of Man's climate journey.
The vessel prides itself on being powered by the world’s most efficient four-stroke diesel engine.
Government has committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, with plans to decarbonise the electricity supply by 2030.
Chair of the Climate Change Transformation Board Daphne Caine says it's interesting how times have changed:
Manx Radio's John Moss watched as the Manxman arrived into Douglas on Sunday (2 July) morning:
Planning application for onshore wind farm still being developed
Motorcyclist suffered fatal chest injuries in crash
Trial for trio accused of producing Class A drugs to Island
Too early for 'direct action' over cost-of-living concerns says chief minister
