The Windfarm Scam

John Etherington's book grew out of Country Guardian's campaign document The Case Against Windfarms. In the late seventies this became a key element in Country Guardian's website www.countryguardian.net.

This database is used around the world in the battle against windfarms, and we have decided to link it to the book. Tthe starting point is the book's Contents Page,which is reproduced on the website Home Page. This then links to some 12 web pages reflecting the contents, each of which links to others in the database, plus external sites.

As well as data supporting The Case Against Windfarms we have included where relevant material from "The Wind Rush Files", which were put put together for Country Guardian's newsletter Openview, and finally links to recent articles, news items, documents which bring the story up-to-date.

12.Epilogue
"The Highlands are being humiliated by wind farm developers who insist they are saving the environment. they lie; they are here to make a profit. Wind farms produce very little and intermittent electricity. Most of the time they do not work. How can the blade of a bulldozer ripping up 6,000 years of beautifully preserved archiology be saving the environment?. How can the turbine blades smashing a golden eagle to bits be saving the environment? How can the government of Scotland destroy such a prize? And use public money to do it?. (Malcolm Rider, geologist 2009)
