While awaiting the outcome of the Planning Departments decision this Thursday evening, the Eco Island Supporters group ponder on a possible future for the Island.
The Eco-Island Supporters Group staged a mock-up of a picnic in a park, which may well disappear under water in a couple of decades due to rising sea levels
The group wanted to highlight how time is running out for the changing climate as well as for the Isle of Wight itself.
