Welcome to RATS
(Residents Against TurbineS)

Carland Cross Wind Farm Action Group

Help us to fight yet another battle to keep Cornwall from being invaded – this time by the new vermin: the ever increasing wind turbines that cause serious problems for our communities and countryside, and are inefficient and poor value for our taxpayers’ money.
 

At a meeting on 11 November 2008 one hundred local residents and some from further afield packed the village hall to hear about ScottishPower's recent planning application - received by Carrick District Council a few days earlier - and its serious implications for local communities and the countryside.

Click here for objective advice.

ScottishPower is seeking to 'overhaul' the Carland Cross wind farm by replacing the present 49 metres (161 feet) turbines with double-height machines of 100 metres (328 feet) and creating a new site with service roads and other infrastructure on Newlyn Downs and adjacent farm land immediately to the west towards the A30 and Fiddlers Green, which will treble the area of land to be leased from the landowner, Trewithen Estate.  This is hardly an ‘overhaul’.

The aim of our wind farm action group website is to inform you about wind turbines to help you decide whether the Carland Cross wind farm should be ‘overhauled’. We live in a democracy and your views and vote will count. If you agree with RATS that ScottishPower should be opposed, to register you support please click here

 


Help us nail the lie.
