The GREENtank is a 'think tank' for GREEN ideas & we support the Vision of the Isle of Wight as an Eco-Island. With its beautiful natural environs, fresh air, sunshine and well defined boundaries it is the perfect place to demonstrate the principles of sustainable living. With our separation from the mainland we recognize our vulnerability in terms of food, water and energy and believe that with the challenges that are facing the World at the moment we believe we need to move back to a more sustainable way of life, based on local communities and working in closer harmony with nature and restoring our relationship with the Earth.
The Greentank group (now over 200 strong) meets approximately every two months at a venue on the IOW to discuss developments in renewable energies, government initiatives, grants and funding opportunities, permaculture and sustainable living in general. The group is comprised of Agencies, Organizations, Trusts, individuals and is often attended by members of the IOW Council.
