Leaflet

After reading the first page on the letter of campaign I received in my mail this morning, I already had one point, If house prices round a wind farm or singular turbine maybe we should build them buy every house. So young people like myself are able to afford houses in the areas we have grown up in.
Point 2 On the next page states the noise level. I have myself stood under these huge wonderful machines gazing up at the engineering as the wind blew and this thing turned I heard nothing. Nor did any of my friends.
Point 5 You state that the average wind speed is the same in England as in Wales we are not in England and I am not sure averages come into it as the turbines are designed to work in a specific wind range I believe like they don’t move in 80mph winds.
Point 6 The wind dose not always blow. No it dose not but when it dose I would be glad to know my energy in my house and wires was coming from a wind farm.
Point 7 There expensive. But maybe there worth it.
Point 8 Over half the money comes from our electricity bills. Dose this not contradict Point 15 (there mainly foreign-owners.
Point 12 Its interesting how you supply over renewable energies like photovoltaic cells which are even more expensive and I am sure larger. Or tidal power which is properly even more harmful to wildlife and an ecosystem we affect more then enough already. Or biomass would you like a biomass station near your house or a coal fuel power station near your house or a nuclear power station near your house would you rather either of them give me a turbine.

I think this letter is written not by people concerned about the environment more about there house prices I live in a beautiful place and I would not mind in the slightest is someone said we are planning a wind turbine behind your house 200m up the hill. I think there are far more important things to be occupied with go clean the rubbish off the beaches or the rivers go for a run. Stop complaining about your over priced houses depreciating in value.

Well I for one am not happy about having these horrible things surrounding me and having to live with them for the next twenty odd years perhaps you should have them all, if you've got space for them.
