Letters / Wow! What next?
Next wind farm for Shetland planned for Yell if the cable comes!
Then what? 30 for Bressay, 25 for Whalsay, 15 on Burra, ten on Trondra, ten for Skerries, 30 between the Black Gaet & Mossy Hill, 30 on Da West Side, 40 between Brae and Hillswick – wow!
Chinese manufacturers, hedge funds, investment bankers and land owners making loads o dosh and aside of no democracy only an elected dictatorship – the rest of us get no birds, no tourists, no views, no peace, no silence, landslides, 600 quarries, 300 miles of concrete roads and folk going mad leaping off the cliffs from the epileptic inducing flicker and noise.
What have the lunatics done?
A friend of mine who understands the real physics of wind turbines and not the rubbish pushed out by those selling them or hoping to coin it in, suggests it’s a Guinness Book of Record attempt – Shetland the only place in the world where every household has a wind turbine dedicated to it!
