October minutes from the Stop Great Cransley Wind Farm Action Group.

We have obtained 4 PDF documents that brief MP’s on Wind Farms.  The topics covered are:

Wind power –overview and update
The Renewable Energy Strategy 
Consents for Wind Farms
Renewable Energy Statistics

Sunday 21st September saw the first meeting held at The Centre At Mawsley (TCAM) to stop the Great Cransley Wind Farm. Over 200 concerned residents from the surrounding villages were keen to learn the truth about this wind farm proposal.

Due to requests made at the recent village meeting we have created a vastly improved virtual site plan of the proposed wind farm.  The site plan plots the location of the 4 turbines along with the location of existing National Grid Pylons.  If you click on the placeholders you will get a pop-up that provides approximate distances from local landmarks in Mawsley, Gt. Cransley and Broughton.  The aim of this new plan is to illustrate just how close the turbines our to us all.  Our key concern!

What is it about The Great Cransley Wind Farm that we should be worried about ?
 
Clearly alternative energy sources need to be considered: electricity generation using wind turbines may well be an important part of this, but there are still considerations over their efficiency. Case histories from areas around the country and international research from eminent sources indicate that the low frequency air pressure changes and resulting sound, called vibroacoustic effects, can cause significant detrimental health problems.
The range of symptoms includes headaches, sleep disturbance, anxiety, depression, stress, vertigo and ringing …
