Citizen Participation and Public Petitions Committee [Session 6]


Alison and Paul Garrod submission of 13 June 2021

PE1864/YY - Increase the ability of communities to influence planning decisions for onshore windfarms

Landscape

How we used to love walking in the Galloway hills,

drinking in the landscape,

basking in the gift of nature, as if it were created just for us,

although, of course, it's not, it's for everyone,

which makes you wonder what future generations will feel

when they look back on this frenzy

of Application after Application, and ask why

it wasn't stopped,

and why there was such an obsession with green policy,

believing it to mean green energy

without looking closely enough, because it didn't,

and the views are gone for ever,

but we don't now, because we are surrounded

in every direction

on every walk

on every hill

by WIND FARMS
