NEWS that Navitus Bay developers are sponsors of The Green Community Fair (Daily Echo, 23rd July 2013) signifies that the fox is now in charge of the hen house.

The Green Movement in general, having failed to prevent destruction of the rain forests and pollution of the oceans, has succeeded in deluding itself that wind farms are a rational substitute for nature’s way of controlling the earth’s climate. To label these huge industrial complexes ‘green’ would be laughable were it not so horribly tragic.

Navitus Bay is but one of a number of wind farms with which it is planned to encircle the British Isles. By approving this plan, environmentalists have in effect joined the ranks of the very people whose activities they should be endeavouring to limit.
