The
Stop Linton Wind Farm Action Group ( StopLWF) is a group of local
residents, formed in June 2007, who oppose Enertrag’s plans to build a
wind farm, consisting of
8 (125m, 410ft high) wind turbines, on the ridge between
Linton and Gt. Chesterford.
On this website you
will find information which should help you to make a considered decision
as to whether the Wind Farm should or should not be built in this
location. If you agree with the Action Group then go to the membership
page and register your agreement.
As a general
introduction to the case against wind farms then this article written by
Dr John Etherington on behalf of Country Guardian, and updated in 2006,
runs through all the issues that need to be balanced against the positive
benefit of producing some carbon free electricity when forming a
conclusion as to whether this is an appropriate location for a wind farm
as large as this.
