More wind turbine proposals

Chris Townsend reveals three more planning applications for wind turbines (one in NW Sutherland, one in the Lammermuir Hills and one in Wales.) All very depressing. Chris also gives a link to the John Muir Trust's site where a full objection to the Sutherland proposal can be read.

Very very dissapointing! The don't even work efficiently - mind I think you probably already know my standpoint on these monstrosities! Whatever happened to the snakes that can sit out in the ocean and can constantly harness energy from tides - surely these have to be far more effective.

There will be no countryside left to enjoy before long.

As you know I loath the things but there doesn't appear to be much that we can do to stop these developments, even in the most sensitive areas.
