Headline

Are wind subsidies a price worth paying?

Comment

The dash for cash and politics, not saving the planet, are the driving forces behind wind energy. Are you disillusioned by rising electricity prices, over dependence on the “green” dream [especially uneconomical and inefficient wind farms] and the destruction of our countryside then please object to the Government at http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/22958 or by GOOGLING “E-PETITION 22958″ and following the link. Please note that the main purpose of the petition is to get a meaningful debate in Parliament on this matter. Parliament is able to call on all the necessary experts to make it a worthwhile discussion and to reach the right conclusions. At the moment most of our MPs are burying their heads in the sand and do not seem to have the ability to convince the British public that wind power, with all its associated problems, is part of the answer to our energy problems.
