Green party doesn't want referendum on Net Zero

The Island's Green Party is urging politicians not to hold a referendum on the Island's net zero policies.

Middle MHK Stu Peters has put forward a motion to be debated by the court during its December sitting asking for a public vote on scrapping the environmental and economic policies.

It a statement on its website, the party says the Island is facing flooding, coastal erosion and heavy rain putting pressure on our roads, drainage, sea defences and public buildings.

And it adds net zero policy isn't virtue signalling but securing the future with cleaner, cheaper energy.
