Statement of Aims

...

We firmly believe that we must all take our environmental responsibilities seriously.

There are grave concerns about global warming and the need to reduce carbon emissions
❍ There are varying views about the causes of climate change.
❍ Whatever the causes we must protect our earth and steward it wisely
The need for clean affordable reliable energy is critical
Economic incentives must be matched by the delivery of economic, reliable, consistent power

We support sound scientific solutions towards the goal of a cleaner greener world.
We are against proposals that don’t make good scientific sense.

We are convinced that Wind Power

is not a technically legitimate solution
does not meaningfully reduce CO2 emissions
is not a commercially viable source of energy
is not environmentally responsible.

We look to better energy solutions for our energy needs
There are alternative energy sources that better meet the science/economics/environmental tests

Our Aims in Light of The Above

To call for a halt to Wind Power Development
To have a national moratorium on this issue
To campaign FOR "Better Solutions" for a better world
To encourage the quest for better alternative green solutions
To campaign vigorously against wind farm developments in our own area
To support and work with other groups across Scotland and the rest of the UK

NOTE to 6 above
Responsibility for renewables in Scotland is devolved.There are differences between Scottish targets,legislation and planning procedures and those in England and Wales.
