Till receipt initiative

Retailers are supporting the anti-littering message with till receipts stating ‘The Isle of Man is a UNESCO Biosphere. Please keep it tidy by disposing of this receipt carefully.’ If your business issues receipts and you are willing to join in, email Biosphere@gov.im to let us know. Click here for more.
